Florida has one of the strongest and most storied women's tennis programs in NCAA history, producing such former greats as Lisa Raymond and Jill Craybas. Only the Stanford University women's tennis team has won more NCAA Championships than the Gators. The women's tennis team has won six NCAA championships (1992, 1996, 1998, 2003, 2011, 2012) and six Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) national indoor championships (1988, 1991, 1992, 1996, 1997, 1999), and twenty-five SEC Championships.

The men's tennis team has won nine SEC Championships, and two singles and one doubles championships in the annual NCAA tournament.

Andy Jackson is the head coach of the men's tennis team, and coach Roland Thornqvist leads the women's tennis team.

The Gators men's and women's tennis teams play their home matches at Linder Stadium at Ring Tennis Complex.
