Lynam first played for the Cork senior hurling team when he was selected as a reserve for the 1950 Munster Championship. He won the first of successive Munster Championship medals in 1952, before claiming his first All-Ireland title after coming on as a substitute for Liam Abernethy in the 1952 final defeat of Dublin. Lynam collected further silverware with a National League title in 1953, before winning a second All-Ireland title, this time as a reserve, after Cork's defeat of Galway in the 1953 final.
