Pierre-Hugues Herbert (French pronunciation: ​[pjɛʁ yɡ ɛʁbɛʁ]; born 18 March 1991) is a French professional tennis player. In doubles, he won the title at the 2015 US Open and 2016 Wimbledon as well as several Masters 1000 tournaments along with Nicolas Mahut. In singles he has reached one ATP career final (at the 2015 Winston-Salem Open), and achieved his career high singles ranking of World No. 68 in February 2017.

Herbert won the Wimbledon boys' doubles title with partner Kevin Krawietz in 2009, beating French duo of Julien Obry and Adrien Puget in the final. He also reached the 2009 US Open boys' singles semifinals, where he lost to eventual champion Bernard Tomic of Australia. Herbert reached as high as No. 9 in the junior singles world rankings in October 2009.

After beginning the year outside the top 250, Herbert rose steadily up the rankings. He qualified for the 2013 Paris Masters, where he defeated Benoît Paire for the loss of only four games in the first round of the main draw - his first ever ATP Tour main draw win. In the second round, he had two set points before losing to Novak Djokovic in straight sets. He ended the year with an ATP singles ranking of 151, compared with 257 12 months earlier.
