Erik Felipe Barbosa Cardoso (born 3 March 2000) is a Brazilian sprinter. ^[2] He competed in the 60 metres at the 2022 World Indoor Championships without advancing from the first round. In addition, he has won multiple medals at regional level.

In July 2023, participating in the South American Games in São Paulo, Cardoso was the first Brazilian in history to run the 100m under 10 seconds. He clocked a time of 9.97, breaking the Brazilian record for the event. ^[3]

In July 2025, he broke the South American record, running the 100m in 9.93s. The fastest time ever recorded in South America was 9.89 by Issamade Assinga of Suriname, but he lost the record due to a doping suspension. ^[4]

In August 2025, he achieved a time of 9.88s in the 100m, which was not validated as a South American record due to the wind of 3.4, above the permitted limit. ^[5]
