István Gulyás (; 14 October 1931 – 31 July 2000) was a Hungarian tennis player. He was the second Hungarian man to reach a major singles final, after Jozsef Asboth in 1947. Gulyás was defeated in the 1966 French Championships final to Tony Roche in three sets, after permitting the match to be delayed by a day for Roche to recover from an ankle injury. He was ranked inside the world's Top 10 on multiple occasions, and Lance Tingay of The Daily Telegraph ranked Gulyás as the world No. 8 in 1966. He holds the record for the most Hungarian National Championship titles with 15.
