The Premier County were held to a 0-14 to 2-8 draw by Dublin in their final Group 2 fixture.
They might have got the win they needed to make the quarter-finals if an effort from the visitors, which lots of people in The Ragg thought had gone wide, wasn't deemed to be a score by the umpire.
Tipp's most potent scoring force on the day was Nicole Walsh, who registered 0-7 from placed balls.
Brian Boyle's players must now hope that Dublin, whose final group match is against Derry, don't rack up the margin of victory needed to put them ahead of Tipperary and into the next round of the compeition.
