Joachim "PimPim" Johansson (born July 1 1982) is a professional male tennis player from Sweden.

Johansson was born in Lund and currently lives in Monte-Carlo, Monaco. His father, Leif Johansson, was also a tennis player and represented Sweden in the Davis Cup in the 1970s. He is not related to former Australian Open champion and fellow Swede Thomas Johansson. He goes by the nickname "Pim Pim," which is a popular Swedish candy. Since 2005, he has reported Swedish hurdler Jenny Kallur is his girlfriend.

Johansson won his first ATP singles title in 2004 when he overcame Nicolas Kiefer in the Memphis final. In 2005 he won another two titles (Adelaide and Marseille).

He caused a huge upset at the 2004 US Open when he beat defending champion Andy Roddick in five sets in the quarterfinals. An unusual aspect of the match was that Roddick won 24 points more than Johansson but was defeated nonetheless. Johansson subsequently lost his semifinal against Lleyton Hewitt.

Johansson underwent shoulder surgery in July 2005, forcing him to stop playing the rest of the year. In 2006 he added physical rehabilitation and development practice with coach Agne Bergvall together with Swedish track and field stars Carolina Klüft, Susanna and Jenny Kallur. In February 2006, he played in the SAP Open in San Jose but sustained another injury. He was then forced to skip tournaments in Indian Wells and Miami until beginning a second comeback in July 2006 by playing Challenger and Futures tournaments.

In October 2006, Johansson made a triumphant return to the ATP Tour in the Stockholm Open. As a wildcard, he defeated Davide Sanguinetti in the first round, and stunned top seed and world number two Rafael Nadal in straight sets in the second round. In that match, Johansson fired 17 aces, and announced his return to the top of the game, calling it his "greatest win ever." Johansson made it to the semifinals of the tournament before losing to fifth-seeded Jarkko Nieminen in three sets. In his next tournament, the Madrid Masters, Johansson pulled off another upset in the second round, defeating fifth-seeded Nikolay Davydenko in three sets. He was forced, however, to withdraw from his next match due to a throat infection.

Unsurprisingly for a player who is 198 cm (6'6") tall, Johansson's most effective stroke is his serve while his greatest weakness is his footwork.

He held the record for most aces served in one match as he aced Andre Agassi 51 times in the 4th round of the 2005 Australian Open (though he still lost the match in four sets). In the post-match press conference, Johansson said he felt he could have served better. Ivo Karlović beat the record on June 21 2005 at Wimbledon by serving 55 aces. He lost the match against Daniele Bracciali in five sets.
