Bertie Óg Murphy (born 16 October 1954) is an Irish retired hurling manager and former player who enjoyed a successful career as a right wing-forward with the Cork senior team.
Born in Glanmire, County Cork, Murphy was introduced to hurling by his father, the long-serving secretary of the local club team, before later coming to prominence at underage levels with the Sarsfields club. He subsequently joined the Sarsfields senior team and was a one-time championship runner-up.
Murphy made his debut on the inter-county scene at the age of seventeen when he first linked up with the Cork minor team. An All-Ireland runner-up in this grade, he later ended up as an All-Ireland runner-up with the under-21 team. Murphy made his senior debut during the 1975-76 league. He went on to play a key role for Cork in attack during a successful era, and won two All-Ireland medals and four Munster medals. He was an All-Ireland runner-up on two occasions.
Throughout his inter-county career Murphy made 11 championship appearances. He retired from inter-county hurling following the conclusion of the 1984 championship.
After being involved in team management and coaching in all grades at club level with Sarsfields, Murphy guided the Cork under-21 team to back-to-back All-Ireland titles. He later enjoyed an unsuccessful one-season spell as manager of the Cork senior team from 2001 to 2002. Murphy returned as Sarsfields manager in 2008 and guided the club to their first championship title in 51 years.
