Sergio Jacobini is an Italian former tennis player.[1]

Jacoboni was a four-time national doubles champion from Rome, active on tour in the 1950s and 1960s. He was singles champion at Aix-en-Provence in 1955. At the 1957 French Championships he had a win over ninth-seed Pierre Darmon en route to the fourth round. In 1961 he was a member of Italy's Davis Cup squad for the Challenge Round final in Melbourne, as an unused reserve to Nicola Pietrangeli and Orlando Sirola.[2] He made the fourth round at Roland Garros again in 1962 and won the first set against top seed Rod Laver, before losing in four.[3]
