Peter Scholl (5 October 1934 – 26 January 2019) was a German tennis player.

Born in Baden-Württemberg, Scholl was a protege of Gottfried von Cramm, who trained him and a number of other select players in Duisburg. He was a Davis Cup player for West Germany from 1956 to 1958, with his only singles win coming against France's Pierre Darmon.[1] In 1961 he won West Germany's national indoor singles championship.[2]

Scholl became known after retirement for his instructional tennis books.[3]
