Yves Allegro (born 24 August 1978) is a retired Swiss professional tennis player. He is a doubles specialist and is well known as compatriot Roger Federer's doubles partner and friend. Allegro and Federer teamed up in doubles at the Australian Open in 2003 and 2004.

He played the Davis Cup for Switzerland from 2004 to 2020[1] alongside Roger Federer or Stan Wawrinka.

On 9 December 2019 at a hearing at the District Court of Sierra, Allegro received a two-year suspended sentence for sexual coercion. The offence occurred in October 2014 while in Tallinn, Estonia towards an ex-Austrian player.[2][3] Allegro appealed the verdict.[4]

Tournament Director

In 2020, Allegro founded an ITF M25 tennis tournament that initially took place in Sierre, Valais, now in Sion. Rinky Hijikata[5] won the 2021 edition.[6] Remy Bertola of Switzerland won the 2022[7] and the 2023 edition.[8] The 2024 edition takes place in August 2024.[9]
