Donald Paterson Turnbull (28 May 1909 – 30 January 1994) was a professional tennis player from Australia. He won the men's doubles title at the Australian Championships twice, in 1936 and 1937.[2] Turnbull represented Australia in three Davis Cup ties, including the 1933 Europe Zone final against Great Britain.[3] Turnbull beat defending champion Edgar Moon at the 1931 Australian Championships. Turnbull's forehand was in fine form and Moon made the mistake of not targeting Turnbull's weaker backhand. Turnbull came from 2–0 down in the fifth set to win.[4] Turnbull lost in the semifinals to Jack Crawford in straight sets.
