The '''Triples Tennis Tournament''' or '''The Triples Cup''' was a YouTube Poop [[Tennis Tournament]] that took place between February to September 2013 on the YouChew Forums. It was the second and final to be organized primarily by {{ChrisGendo}}, but hosted for the majority by {{trepmaws}} and later AshcrementVII; it is the twelfth overall tennis competition. The layout was a further extension of RAKninja's original Doubles Cup idea, extending the teams from pairs to groups of three and also incorporating team names for each group. To date, it is the only [[Tennis Tournament]] to use the [[Triples Tennis]] format, and the only occasion in which Triples Tennis has been played entirely. The eventual Winning Team of the Tournament was a team made up of '''{{MycroProcessor}}, {{GameBop}} and eletricalmonkss under the name of The Complex Triangle''', significant in that it would be the first tournament that {{MycroProcessor}} would finally win after having made it to the final match in two previous tournaments, and {{GameBop}} would become the first tennis player to win for a second time.

This was the third of four tennis tournaments to use the voting account "Gendo Ikari", in reference to the character from ''Neon Genesis Evangelion''.  


It was the first tennis competition to feature CreepahWeegie, iamoutofideas1, cyclejunkie, and Cornflakes, and the last to feature RAKninja, {{ChrisGendo}}, Rillion, and lordbababa. It is also the only tennis competition to feature ArsenioGut, FishTitan, XxRobotChaoxX, SaturdayNightCleaner and LoveForLogos, the latter whom infamously never contributed any actual videos of their own.
