Denis O'Gorman (28 August 1914 – 1 May 2005) was an Irish hurler who played as a left corner-back and as a goalkeeper for the Tipperary senior team.[1]

O'Gorman made his first appearance for the team during the 1934 championship and was a regular player over the course of the next decade. During that time he won one All-Ireland winners' medal and two Munster winner's medals.[2]

At club level, he enjoyed a lengthy career with Holycross-Ballycahill, however, a county club championship winners' medals eluded him.

O'Gorman also won four Railway Cup winners' medals with Munster.[3]
