João Sousa is the highest-ranked Portuguese tennis player by the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP). He competes in the ATP World Tour, where he has won two singles titles in a total of eight finals.

A professional player since 2005, Sousa peaked at number 61 in the world junior ranking in 2007, shortly after entering the main draw of the Orange Bowl. In June 2009, he won his first singles tournament, a Futures in Spain. Sousa started playing in the ATP Challenger Tour in 2008, winning his first tournament at this level in June 2011. Sousa debuted in the World Tour in 2008, playing that year's Estoril Open as a qualifier, and won his first top-tier ATP singles title in September 2013, at the Malaysian Open. He has participated in all four Grand Slams, having three third-round appearances at the US Open (2013) and Australian Open (2015 and 2016) as his best performances. While focusing on his singles career, Sousa has also competed in doubles; his best record is the quarterfinals of the 2015 US Open.

Sousa holds several Portuguese men's tennis records. In October 2013, he became the first player to break into the ATP singles ranking top 50, and in 2015, he secured a year-end top-50 ranking (no. 33) for the second time in his career, with 38 wins. In 2014, Sousa was the first Portuguese to play exclusively at the ATP World Tour in a single season, and the first to be seeded in a Grand Slam main draw (2014 US Open). He was the fourth Portuguese player to reach the singles top 100, and the second to do it in both singles and doubles rankings (after Nuno Marques). Sousa is also the Portuguese tennis player with the largest career prize money ever and most wins at Grand Slam singles tournaments.
