Vasilisa Alekseyevna Bardina (Russian: Василиса Алексеевна Бардина, born November 30, 1987) is a Russian professional tennis player.

As of August 10, 2007, her highest ranking was World Number 48, achieved in early 2007. She has won 3 ITF Women's Circuit singles titles and 3 ITF doubles titles, but not any WTA titles in singles or doubles.

Vasilisa made the final of Moorilla Hobart International in 2007, before losing to Anna Chakvetadze.[1] She was forced off the tour after Wimbledon in 2007 due to injury, she had suffered a stress fracture in her right shin.[2] She tried to come back at the Australian Open in 2008, but it was too soon after her injury and she had only been practicing for two weeks before the event. She lost in straight sets to Sandra Kloesel in qualifying.[3] Since then Bardina has made a few tentative appearances, predominately at ITF events in North America with limited success.

Bardina's goal is to reach the top 10.[4] As of November 28 2009 she is unranked. [5]
