Real Tennis World Championship

The Real Tennis World Championship is the premier competition in real tennis.

Men's singles in real tennis was the first world championship in any sport; it also predates the use of the term "real tennis," as the sport was called just "tennis" until lawn tennis gained popularity.

The first recorded champion was Clergé, The Elder in the 1740s.
