Sam James Walker (born 1 March 1978) is an English professional golfer.

Walker was born in Birmingham and turned professional in 2000. He came through the ranks, starting his career on the third tier MasterCard Tour before graduating to the Challenge Tour and finally the top level European Tour. He has struggled to establish himself at the highest level, only retaining his card once in 2007 when he finished 80th on the Order of Merit.

Walker has two wins on the second tier Challenge Tour, the first coming in 2006 at the Scottish Challenge and the second in 2010 at the Allianz Open Côtes d'Armor Bretagne.[1]
