Tom Chaytor was the youngest of the three Irish lawn tennis-playing Chaytor brothers and the longest lived. His lawn tennis-playing siblings were Charles Chaytor and David Grainger Chaytor, known as Grainger. Tom Chaytor won several singles titles during his lawn tennis career and almost beat his great countryman, Joshua Pim, in the final match of the men’s singles event at the Irish Championships in 1894. It could be argued that Tom Chaytor did not fulfil his early potential as a lawn tennis player.
