James O’Donovan advanced to the 2020 Munster Senior championship semi-final after a comprehensive line-to-line victory over David Murphy at Derrinasafa on Sunday.

He opened the contest with a big bowl into the middle of the wall. Murphy missed that by 25m and was wide with his second throw. O’Donovan shaved the right with his second one and made full sight on the straight. Murphy only beat this by 100m with his third shot towards the rock.
