Conor Mortimer is an Irish Gaelic football player for Mayo and Connacht and plays his club football for Shrule-Glencorrib.
Conor has been one of the most prolific scorers in Gaelic football for the last years. Mortimer is yet to lift the All-Ireland title with Mayo, having lost to Kerry in 2004 and 2006 in the All-Ireland Final. Last year the bleach-haired diminutive corner forward was top scorer in the championship (1-32) as Mayo took the Connacht title, came from behind to beat Dublin in the game of the year (semi-final) but ultimately were felled cruelly by Kerry in the All-Ireland SFC final. Rewarding his great year, he was selected into the Vodafone GAA Football All Stars and in the GPA Gaelic football Team of the Year for 2006.
