Artemio Murakami (born 22 July 1983) is a Filipino professional golfer.

Murakami turned professional in 2005 and joined the Asian Tour in 2007. In his debut season he won his first tournament at the Iskandar Johor Open, and in 2008 he recorded his best Order of Merit finish of 47th. However, since then his form has declined, and he lost his tour card at the end of 2010.

Murakami's father is Japanese; as a result he holds dual citizenship.
