Christy O'Connor's talking points: Handing out the awards for Championship 2025

MOST MEMORABLE GAME: The Ulster final between Armagh and Donegal had an extra sprinkle of magic. Pic: David Fitzgerald/Sportsfile
Armagh-Donegal Ulster final. The Cork-Kerry Munster semi-final which Kerry won after extra-time and the Derry-Galway round robin match which ended in a draw were superb matches but the Ulster final in May just had that extra sprinkling of magic. The 2024 final was the best Ulster decider since 2003 but this match surpassed those games. This was undoubtedly one of the greatest Ulster finals – possibly the greatest.
