Albert Burke (1901–1958) was a French-born professional tennis player of Irish descent who described himself as British but was classed as a representative of Ireland and, on other occasions, of France when playing in international tournaments.[1] In 1924 and 1925 he won the Bristol Cup tournament, which was at that time the principal competition for tennis professionals.
