Tom Dennis (1881 – c. 1939) was an English professional snooker and English billiards player.
Dennis reached the finale of the World Championship in 1927, 1929, 1930 and 1931 but was beaten every time by Joe Davis. The closest Dennis came to defeating Davis was in the 1931 tournament, when the pair were the only two entrants. The match, played in the back room of his own pub in Nottingham, saw Dennis lead 14-10 and 19-16 before losing 21-25. He competed in two more championships, making his last appearance in 1933.
