Wesley Koolhof (Dutch pronunciation: [ˈʋɛsli ˈkoːlɦɔf];[2] born 17 April 1989) is a Dutch professional tennis player who is a former world No. 1 in doubles.

He is a two-time Grand Slam champion, having won the 2023 Wimbledon Championships in men's doubles with Neal Skupski and the 2022 French Open in mixed doubles with Ena Shibahara. Koolhof also finished runner-up in men's doubles at the 2020 and 2022 US Opens, alongside Nikola Mektić and Skupski respectively. He has won 19 doubles titles on the ATP Tour, including the 2020 ATP Finals with Mektić and four at Masters 1000 level. Koolhof became world No. 1 for the first time in November 2022, becoming the fourth Dutchman to attain the top ranking in doubles after Tom Okker, Paul Haarhuis and Jacco Eltingh, and ending the year as joint No. 1 alongside Skupski. In singles, he reached his career-high ranking of world No. 462 in August 2013.

Koolhof has represented the Netherlands in the Davis Cup since 2019 and also competed at the 2020 Olympic Games partnering Jean-Julien Rojer. He was part of the team that reached the Davis Cup quarterfinals in 2022 and 2023, the Netherlands' best performances in the competition since 2005.
