In hurling, the term "Big Three" (Irish: An Triúr Mór) refers to the hurling county teams of Cork, Kilkenny and Tipperary.[1][2][3][4]
Historically, these three counties have dominated the sport. Together, they have won 94 out of 134 of the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championships (70%) and 52/91 (57%) of the National Hurling Leagues.[5][6][7][8]
