Several prominent GAA stars have taken to Twitter to pay tribute to Tomás Ó Sé following his retirement from inter-county football.
Kerry team-mates Bryan Sheehan and Killian Young were among the first to salute O Se after he brought the curtain down on his glittering 15-year career. Armagh's Aaron Kernan, Dublin's Barry Cahill, Aidan Carr of Down, Adrian Flynn of Wexford, Meath's Brian Farrell, Mayo's Conor Mortimer, Darren Clarke of Louth and Cork hurling legend Diarmuid O'Sullivan - who had a short-lived inter-county football career - have also been congratulating the Ventry man on his retirement.
Meanwhile, Kerry team-mate Jonathan Lyne believes a professional golfing career could now be in the offing for one of Kerry's greatest ever footballers!
Here is just a selection of some of the tweets:
