Séverine Brémond (born Séverine Beltrame August 14, 1979 in Montpellier, France) is a professional female tennis player from France.

On July 10, 2006, Brémond achieved a career-high singles ranking: World No. 65, following her success at the 2006 Wimbledon Championships, where she reached the quarterfinal of a Grand Slam event for the first time in her career—as a qualifier. On her run to the quarterfinal, Brémond defeated No. 10 Patty Schnyder in the second round for her first top 10 win, Gisela Dulko in the third round, and Ai Sugiyama in the fourth, losing to Justine Henin-Hardenne, the eventual finalist, 6-4 6-4. Brémond reached the 2nd round in the 2006 U.S. Open, where she lost to Maria Kirilenko 6-2 6-3. She also reached the quarterfinals in the Wismilak International Open defeating Trudi Musgrave and Sandy Gumulya, but lost to the eventual tournament winner Svetlana Kuznetsova. She reached a new career high singles ranking of No. 47 following this quarterfinal.

Brémond reached her first WTA Tour semifinal at the Tier III PTT Bangkok Open in Bangkok, Thailand. She beat Ryoko Fuda, Klara Zakopalova, and Eleni Daniilidou (saving match point in the second set) to make it to the semifinal where she faced hometown favorite Tamarine Tanasugarn and was beaten. Brémond's three previous matches had all been three-setters; by the time she was to face Tanasugarn she was worn out. Her run at this event boosted her rankings back into the top 50 at No. 43.

Bremond's last event for 2006 was the Bell Challenge in Quebec, Canada, where she was seeded 4th. She defeated American Jill Craybas in the first round, Greta Arn in the second, and Martina Sucha in the quarterfinal for her second semifinal in a row. She then lost to Olga Poutchkova in three sets. Following her run to the semifinals at this event she broke the top 40 for the first time and landed at her new career high ranking of No. 38.
