Thomas Koonce Sanders, Sr. (July 21, 1932 – December 11, 2011)[1][2][3] was an American bridge player from Nashville, Tennessee.[4] He was married to Carol Sanders, a women's teams world champion player.

Sanders was a graduate of Vanderbilt University. He won a single World Bridge Federation gold medal as USA non-playing captain in the 1981 Bermuda Bowl tournament.[3]

Tom and Carol Sanders were both inducted into the ACBL Hall of Fame in 2002.[5] They were recipients of the von Zedtwitz Award; that is, were nominated for the Hall of Fame by a "Veterans Committee" of players out of the limelight for some time.[6]
