Francisco Cerúndolo (born 13 August 1998) is an Argentine professional tennis player. He has been ranked as high as world No. 19 in singles by the ATP, achieved on 19 June 2023. He also has a career-high doubles ranking of No. 203 achieved in October 2022.

After turning professional in 2018, Cerúndolo made his debut on the ATP Tour at the 2019 Argentina Open, the event at which he later broke through on tour in 2021 after reaching his first ATP singles final and becoming the first qualifier to contend for the title in 20 years. In 2022, Cerúndolo hit several more milestones: emerging into the top 100 in singles, reaching his first ATP Masters 1000 semifinal in 2022 Miami in his first Masters main draw, and winning his first ATP title at the 2022 Swedish Open, all of which sealed him a year-end top-30 ranking. At the Grand Slam level, Cerúndolo earned his first wins at the 2023 Australian Open and at the French Open, where he reached the third and fourth rounds, respectively.

Cerúndolo is the older brother of fellow tennis player Juan Manuel Cerúndolo. In 2021, with the Córdoba Open followed by the Argentina Open, the Cerúndolos became the first brothers to reach consecutive finals on the ATP Tour since Alexander Zverev and Mischa Zverev in 2017. In 2022, they also became the first brothers to be ranked inside the top 100 in singles since the Zverev brothers in 2019.
