Pedro Barreiros Cardoso de Sousa (; born 27 May 1988) is a Portuguese tennis coach and a former professional player who primarily competed on the ATP Challenger Tour. He reached a career-high singles ranking of world No. 99 in February 2019.

Professional Career He reached his first ATP final as a lucky loser at the 2020 Argentina Open after the withdrawal of top seed Diego Schwartzman in the semifinals but lost to Casper Ruud in the championship match.

He also announced his retirement from professional tennis, the 2023 Lisboa Belém Open Challenger being his final event. He retired on 6 October 2023.
