Peyton Mckenzie Stearns (born October 8, 2001) is an American professional tennis player. She has been ranked by the WTA as high as world No. 28 in singles, achieved on May 19, 2025 and No. 46 in doubles, reached on February 2, 2026. She has won two WTA Tour singles titles, and five singles and two doubles titles on the ITF Circuit.
Stearns played college tennis for the Texas Longhorns. In spring 2022, Stearns became the first Texas player to become the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) champion in women's tennis and elected to turn professional later that year.
In her first full season on tour in 2023, Stearns made her top 100 debut in April, after reaching her first WTA Tour quarterfinal at the inaugural ATX Open in March 2023, before reaching her first career final at the Copa Colsanitas the following month.
At the 2023 US Open, she made a major fourth round for the first time and, as a result, reached the top 50 in September 2023.
At the 2025 Italian Open, she became the first player in the Open Era to win three consecutive WTA Tour main-draw matches in third-set tiebreaks having beaten Madison Keys, Naomi Osaka and Elina Svitolina across round 3 to quarterfinal.
