Laura Pigossi, Brazilian tennis player
Laura Pigossi Herrmann de Andrade (born 2 August 1994) is a Brazilian tennis player.
Pigossi has won seven singles and 41 doubles titles on the ITF Women's Circuit. On 8 November 2021, she reached her best singles ranking of world No. 218. On 3 February 2020, she peaked at No. 125 in the WTA doubles rankings.
Playing for the Brazil Fed Cup team since 2013, Pigossi has a win/loss record of 4–4.
Pigossi is an Olympic bronze medallist from the 2020 Tokyo Olympics in the doubles event. She partnered Luisa Stefani to defeat Veronika Kudermetova and defending gold medallist Elena Vesnina to win the bronze medal. Pigossi and Stefani became the first Brazilians to obtain an Olympic medal in tennis in history, surpassing Fernando Meligeni's campaign that took 4th place in 1996. The medal was one of the most unexpected: the Brazilians got an Olympic spot at the last minute, confirmed one week before the Games opened, with Stefani ranked No. 23 in the doubles ranking and Pigossi only at No. 190. Although the Brazilian pair had lost in the only game they played together before, during the campaign they managed to save eight match-points. In addition to the four in the bronze medal match, they saved another four in the match against Czech duo Karolína Plíšková and Markéta Vondroušová in the round of 16.
