The 2007 Internazionali BNL d'Italia was the 2007 edition of the Rome Masters tennis tournament. The men's tournament was part of the 2007 ATP Masters Series and was held on May 5-13. The women's event was a 2007 WTA Tier I Series event and was held on May 13-20.

Rafael Nadal was crowned champion for a record third consecutive year, and equalled Thomas Muster's overall record of three wins. Filippo Volandri, conqueror of Roger Federer, became the first Italian man to reach the semi-final stage since 1978, leaving Mara Santangelo as the only Italian among the winners for this year, triumphing in the women's doubles along with Nathalie Dechy of France.

Jelena Janković, in scintillating form, won her third title of the year after considering retirement during the previous year.
