Stephanie Bengson (born 31 January 1987) is a professional Australian tennis player. So far her career has developed more in doubles than singles. Her highest singles ranking is No. 596, achieved in May 2012. Her highest doubles ranking is No. 178, also achieved in May 2012.

Bengson won 3 ITF Women's Circuit Doubles titles in 2011.

Bengson started her year playing at the Premier-level tournament in Sydney. She and Tyra Calderwood fell in the first round to Maria Kirilenko and Nadia Petrova. She and Calderwood then received a wildcard into the 2012 Australian Open, but unfortunately, they also fell in the first round to Eva Birnerová and Alberta Brianti. This was Stephanie's 1st Grand Slam performance.

In May, Bengson went back to the ITF circuit, competing in a string of Japanese challengers. She won her biggest title yet at the $50,000-level tournament in Fukuoka in May, winning the doubles event with fellow Australian, Monique Adamczak. She then went to compete in the WTA International event, a week before Roland Garros in Strasbourg. She played alongside Monique Adamczak in the doubles event and reached her first ever WTA event Quarterfinal. The pair defeated Slovak duo Lenka Juríková and Kristína Kučová in the first round, but unfortunately fell in the quarterfinals to Alexandra Cadanțu and Anne Keothavong.
