Niccolò Mornati (born 28 October 1980 in Milan) is an Italian rower. During the London Olympics he came in fourth with his partner Carboncini, and was then embroiled in a blog attack on Enrico Gandola, president of the Italian Rowing Federation. Gandola told Mornati "Stay in your boat."[1]

He also competed at the 2004 Olympics in the men's coxed eight and at the 2008 Olympics in the men's coxless fours.

On 29 April 2016 it was announced that he had been suspended after a positive doping test.[2]

Il 31enne arrivato quarto nel due senza a Londra con Lorenzo Carboncini, attacca a testa bassa la federazione e Enrico Gandola, il presidente di cui chiede addirittura le dimissioni, criticando aspramente la scelta di non confermare il c.t. Giuseppe De Capua dopo le Olimpiadi. Mornati ha scelto il suo blog ufficiale per lanciare la sua personale crociata contro la federazione. La risposta di Gandola, arrivata attraverso Sky, non si è fatta attendere."
