Double Men's

Men's doubles from the 1904 Summer Olympics .

Beals Wright and Edgar Leonard were able to prevail in the doubles competition 6: 4, 6: 4 against the pairing Robert LeRoy and Alphonzo Bell . Wright later also won the individual competition against LeRoy. A game for third place was not played, both pairs of semi-finalists received a bronze medal.

A total of 15 pairings took part in the double competition. As in the singles, Hugo Hardy was the only German player who did not come from the United States.

In the final result, the sources differ in their information. Some only use the first two sets as a result; it remains unclear whether a third set was played.
