Jimmy Lynam, at 99 years old, is Cork's oldest All-Ireland medal winner, having been a member of the legendary Cork hurling team that dominated in the 1950s. He won two All-Ireland medals in 1952 and 1953, and reminisces fondly about cycling to Dublin in 1943 to witness Cork's victory in the All-Ireland final.
