The 2017 Galway Senior Hurling Championship was the 120th staging of the Galway Senior Hurling Championship since its establishment in 1887.

Contents

St. Thomas' were the reigning champions. Ahascragh-Fohenagh participated in the senior championship having been promoted from the intermediate competition in 2016.

The title was won by the Galway city based Liam Mellows who defeated Gort in the final. It was their first title in 47 years. [1] [2]

Controversy

Turloughmore's group stage win over Portumna on 3 June 2017 was overturned by the GAA's Disputes Resolution Authority (DRA). [3] Jamie Holland played for Turloughmore having been transferred to Cú Chulainns, Chicago two days earlier. [4]
