Gilles Valere Jacque Elseneer (born 1978-03-06 in Bruxelles) is a professional tennis player on the ATP tour from Belgium. He is mostly known for his grass court game, and has achieved his best results on this surface.

He reached his top ranking on 12 July 2004, peaking at n°97 on the ATP ranking list. 2004 was arguably the strongest year of his career, in which he reached the second rounds of the French Open (l. Gustavo Kuerten) and Wimbledon (l. Ivo Karlović), and won the challengers of Heilbronn and Sarajevo.

Elseneer made a claim in September 2007 that he was offered money to throw a match against Potito Starace at Wimbledon 2005. ^[1]

He is now coaching and teaching tennis within his father's tennis academy (royal tennis club de Belgique) in Brussels.
