Philip Thorp (6 May 1911 – December 2006) was an English cricketer who played two first-class games for Worcestershire in 1935. He was born in Kidderminster, Worcestershire.
On his debut against Surrey, he was unfortunate to come up against an irresistible first-innings spell of bowling from Alf Gover, who finished with 8-34 (his career best) as Worcestershire were skittled for 73. Thorp made 11 of those, being one of four Worcestershire batsman to reach double figures (no-one reached 20). In the second innings he scored only 8 (again being dismissed by Gover). He played one more match, against Lancashire, but made a pair.
