Nadine Visser (born 9 February 1995 in Hoorn) is a Dutch athlete. She won bronze medals in both heptathlon and the 100 m hurdles at the 2014 World Junior Championships, and bronze in the 100 m hurdles at the 2015 European U23 Championships.
Visser's first sports were gymnastics and football; she took up athletics at age 13. She represented the Netherlands at the 2011 European Youth Olympic Festival in Trabzon, winning gold in both the 100 m hurdles and the 4 × 100 metres relay. Visser competed as a heptathlete at the 2012 World Junior Championships in Barcelona, placing eleventh with 5447 points. In 2013, she placed fourth in the heptathlon at the European Junior Championships in Rieti, scoring 5774 points; in the heptathlon's opening event, the 100 m hurdles, she ran 13.21 (+1.5) to break Dafne Schippers's Dutch junior record from 2011.
During the 2014 indoor season Visser set Dutch indoor junior records in both the 60 m hurdles and the pentathlon; as of 2015[update], her pentathlon score of 4268 points ranks her ninth on the world all-time junior list. Outdoors, Visser competed in the Götzis Hypo-Meeting for the first time, scoring a personal best 6110 points and placing 14th. At the 2014 World Junior Championships in Eugene, Oregon she took part in both the heptathlon and the 100 m hurdles, winning bronze medals in both events; in the hurdles she broke 13 seconds for the first time, her time of 12.99 (+1.9) setting a new Dutch junior and under-23 record. Visser qualified for her first senior European Championships that summer, representing the Netherlands in the 100 m hurdles; she ran 13.12 (-2.0) in the heats and was narrowly eliminated from the semi-finals.
