Michaël Llodra (born May 18, 1980) is a professional French male tennis player.

Llodra was born in Paris, the son of a former professional footballer with Paris Saint-Germain. A left-hander, he has won the Australian Open Men's Doubles title twice with Fabrice Santoro. He has also won one ATP singles title ('s-Hertogenbosch, 2004). His serve-and-volley style is modelled on that of his idol Stefan Edberg.

On November 20, 2005, Llodra teamed up with Fabrice Santoro, a French compatriot, to win the 2005 Tennis Masters Cup in Shanghai, a competition which pitted the top 8 doubles teams in the world against one another.
