Sarah Gabrielle Cabral de Menezes (born 26 March 1990) is a judoka from Brazil. In 2012, she became the first Brazilian woman to win an Olympic gold medal in judo, after defeating the reigning Olympic champion Alina Dumitru.[2][3] She also competed at the 2008 and 2016 Summer Olympics.[4]

Menezes won her first major medal by claiming bronze at the World Judo Championships in Tokyo in September 2010.[5][6]

Menezes retired in 2020, as she got pregnant from French judoka Loic Pietri, and their daughter was born in May 2021.[7] In 2021, she was approached by the Brazilian Judo Confederation to coach the national team. In the 2024 Summer Olympics, Menezes coached Larissa Pimenta to a bronze medal and Beatriz Souza to the gold.[8]
