This list includes Jews who have had outstanding achievements in sports. The criteria for inclusion in this list are: a) 1-3 places winners at major international tournaments; b) for team sports, winning in preliminary competitions of finals at major international tournaments, or playing for several seasons for clubs of major national leagues; or c) owners of world records. Bolding denotes current competitor.

Significance

The topic of Jewish participation in sports is discussed extensively in academic and popular literature, in part because of its relevance to the common stereotype of Jews as non-athletic, and also because of the perceived role of sports as a historical avenue for Jewish people to overcome obstacles toward their participation in secular society (especially in Europe and the United States).
