Yoshie Ueno (上野 順恵, Ueno Yoshie; born 1 July 1983, in Asahikawa Hokkaidō) is a Japanese judoka.[1]

Ueno won the gold medal in the Half-middleweight (63 kg) division at the 2009 World Judo Championships and in 2010. In 2011 she lost the final to local hero Gévrise Émane.

Ueno's elder sister is Masae Ueno, who retired in 2009 after winning gold at the 2004 and 2008 Summer Olympics.[2] At the 2012 Summer Olympics Ueno won a bronze medal after losing in the quarter-finals to South Korean eighth seed Joung Da-Woon.[3]
