İpek Şenoğlu (born 8 June 1979), nicknamedİpeko, is a Turkish former professional tennis player.

She first made history in June 2004, when she was accepted into the women's doubles qualifying forWimbledon. Though Şenoğlu did not advance into the main draw of Wimbledon, she became the first Turk ever to play in a qualifying tournament for aGrand Slam event.

On 15 May 2005,Venus Williams played a show game with Şenoğlu on theBosporus Bridge inIstanbul, the first tennis match ever to be played across two continents.
