Peter Kobelt (born November 17, 1990) is an American tennis player. He competed in the 2014 US Open alongside doubles partner Hunter Reese after receiving a wildcard into the men's doubles draw.[1] The pair lost 4–6, 1–6 to Michaël Llodra and Nicolas Mahut in the first round. Kobelt was raised in New Albany, Ohio and is a 2009 graduate of New Albany High School.[2] He then attended Ohio State University, graduating in 2014.[3][4]

In 2020, Kobelt entered the field of coaching.
