Clara Tauson (born 21 December 2002) is a Danish professional tennis player. In 2016, at age 13, she became the youngest Danish champion in tennis history (Caroline Wozniacki held the previous record when she won at age 14).^[2] Her career-high rankings are world No. 33 in singles and No. 432 in doubles, reached in February 2022. She has won two career titles both on hardcourt indoors.

As a junior, she played amateur tournaments from 2013 till 2019 and started mixing this with prize money tournaments in 2017. Her best amateur result was girls' 2019 Australian Open winner. The same year, she became the first Danish girl to top the junior world ranking.^[3] On the professional ITF Circuit, she has won eleven titles, the first at age 14. Her WTA Tour debut came in April 2019 and her debut in a senior level major came at the 2020 French Open. She ended her junior years in top 200 in the WTA rankings.

In 2021, her first year as a senior, she won her two first WTA Tour singles titles at the Lyon Open and at Luxembourg Open on top of one Challenger and two ITF tournament wins. At the same time she broke into top 50 on the WTA rankings. Her 2022 season was marred by injuries, however, she managed to pass her first million US$ in prize money. She has also represented Denmark in Fed/BJK Cup with a win–loss record of 15–5 (as of July 2024).
