Andrés Gimeno Tolaguera (born August 3, 1937 in Barcelona, Spain) is a retired Spanish tennis player whose major achievement came in 1972, when he won the French Open.

Gimeno turned professional in 1960, the year in which he became the first Spanish player to win the Torneo Godó. That same year he reached the doubles final too, but failed to win in that category, losing to an Australia duo in the final.

The Catalan won his first and only Grand Slam in 1972. He holds the record for the oldest male player to win the French Open (at the age of 35). He also reached the final of the Australian Open in 1969, losing to Rod Laver in three sets.

He was elected to the International Tennis Hall of Fame in 2009.[1]
