Patrizia Murgo (born 26 March 1962) is an Italian former professional tennis player.

Tennis career[edit]

Murgo, a native of Florence, was the first Italian to reach an Orange Bowl final when she finished runner-up to Kathy Horvath in 1979.[1] She was also a women's doubles bronze medalist at that year's Mediterranean Games in Split, with Antonella Rosa as her partner.

In 1981 and 1982, Murgo was a member of the Italy Federation Cup team as a doubles specialist, usually partnering Sabina Simmonds. She won six of her eight Federation Cup doubles rubbers.

While competing on the WTA circuit her best result in a singles tournament came at the 1981 Italian Open, where she reached the round of 16. As a doubles player she had a runner-up finish at the 1985 Italian Open.[2]
