Shaun Thurston Bartlett (born October 31, 1972 in Cape Town) is a South African football (soccer) striker.

Bartlett began his career with his hometown Cape Town Spurs and then moved to Major League Soccer and the Colorado Rapids in the league's inaugural season in 1996. In 1997, he was traded to the MetroStars halfway through the season. Bartlett left MLS, without leaving much of a mark, first on loan to FC Zurich and then transferring there for good in 1998. He went on loan to Charlton in 2000, and moved there in 2001 on a permanent deal worth £2 million. He was released by the club in May, 2006. He recently signed with SA giants Kaizer Chiefs.

Bartlett is currently (as of October 2005) joint leading scorer alongside Benni McCarthy for the South African national team, with 28 goals in 74 caps. He helped his country to the 1996 African Nations Cup and played in the 1998 FIFA World Cup, scoring two goals.
