Below are the lists of real tennis world champions.

Men's singles

Men's singles in "real" tennis is the oldest world championship in sports. It predates the use of the term "real tennis," as the sport was simply "tennis" until lawn tennis gained popularity.

Except in cases where the champion has retired, the championship has always been on a challenge basis — the champion retains the title until losing an official challenge or retiring. Originally, the champion had the right to accept or reject a challenge, usually depending upon the prize money put up by the challenger's sponsor. Several years could thus go by between challenge matches. Today, however, the title must be defended every even-numbered year. The top four ranked players in the world (excluding the champion himself) play off for the right to challenge. The champion and challenger then play a match of up to 13 sets over three days (4 sets, 4 sets and up to 5 sets on the final day). In theory this is the only match the champion has to play in the two years since winning the last one.

The most recent men's world championship match concluded in April 2018 at London's Queen's Club, where Robert Fahey beat defending champion Camden Riviere, to reclaim the title, his 13th world championship victory.

To date there are 25 players who have been declared a Champion (considered the best player at that time) and after 1885 officially "World Champion" when the 13 set challenge format was introduced in 1885. The governing body, the Tennis & Rackets Association consider all of the players as the official World Singles Champions.[1]
