Hildegard Hilde Krahwinkel Sperling (German pronunciation: [ˈhɪldəɡaʁt kʀaːvɪŋkl̩]; 26 March 1908 – 7 March 1981) was a German tennis player although she became a dual-citizen after marrying Dane Svend Sperling in 1933. She is generally regarded as the second-greatest female German tennis player in history behind Steffi Graf. Sperling played a counterpunching game predicated on speed and wore down opponents.
