Hilda Tenorio

Hilda Eliana Tenorio Patiño (born June 11, 1986) is a Mexican bullfighter and matador. She was the first woman to receive her alternativa in the Plaza de Toros México, the largest bullring in the world, aged 24. Tenorio completed her alternativa on February 28, 2010. She has been an outspoken advocate of feminism in the sport. She is the third Mexican woman to attain the rank of matador.

On May 15, 2016 in Tepotzotlán, Mexico, she became the first and only woman to perform an encerrona, that is, she alone dealt with the entire bullfight against six bulls.

On May 3, 2019 she was seriously injured by a goring received during a presentation in the Plaza del Relicario in Puebla. She received several facial injuries after the bull pushed into her as she was kneeling before it. Tenorio spoke shortly after the incident, confirming that her "upper jaw [was] broken and [her] cheeks [were] fractured".
