Paul Casey (b. 12 July 1977 Weybridge) is an English golfer who is a member of the world's top two professional golf tours, the U.S. based PGA Tour and the PGA European Tour.

After attending Hampton School, Casey took a golf scholarship at Arizona State University (one of an increasing number of young British golfers taking tertiary scholarships in the USA. His amateur career was distinguished. In the U.S. he was the first man to win three consecutive Pac-10 Championships (1998, 1999 and 2000). In 2000 he broke the championship scoring record held by Tiger Woods (18 under par) with a 23 under par 265. Back on the other side of the Atlantic he won the English Amateur Championship in 1999 and 2000. He was also a member of Great Britain and Ireland’s winning 1999 Walker Cup team, where he was only the third player in seventy seven years to record four victories without a defeat.

Casey joined the PGA European Tour in May 2001 and recorded a second in his fifth event and a win in his eleventh, the Gleneagles Scottish PGA Championship, ending that season 22nd on the order of merit and collecting the Sir Henry Cotton Rookie of the Year. After a disappointing second season he won the ANZ Championship and the Benson and Hedges International Open in 2003, and came sixth on the order of merit.
