Lubomira Kurhajcova (Ľubomíra Kurhajcová) (born October 11, 1983 in Bratislava, Czechoslovakia) is a Slovak female professional tennis player. She reached her career high singles ranking of No. 59 on May 24, 2004. Although she never passed the first round of a Grand Slam in seven appearances, she did get close at the 2004 French Open when she led Lisa Raymond 6-0, 5-0 in the first round and held two match points, only to lose the match 0-6, 7-5, 6-3.^[1]

She reached her first ever WTA Tour final at the Pattaya Women's Open in 2003, but lost there to her compatriot Henrieta Nagyova. In doubles she is a two-time runner-up, losing the 2004 Internazionali Femminili di Palermo final (teaming up with Nagyova) and the 2005 Copa Colsanitas final with Barbora Zahlavova Strycova.
