Dan Jenson (born 20 June 1975 in Brisbane, Australia) is an Australian former professional squash player. He joined the professional tour in 1993, and reached a career-high world ranking of World No. 5 in 1999. He was considered to be one of the rising stars of the game in the late-1990s, but a series of injuries hampered his progress.[citation needed]

At the inaugural World Doubles Squash Championships in 1997, Jenson won the mixed doubles event (partnering Liz Irving), and finished runner-up in the men's doubles (partnering Craig Rowland). He was also runner-up in the men's doubles at the 2006 championships (partnering Joe Kneipp). At the 2006 Commonwealth Games, Jenson won a bronze medal in the men's doubles (partnering David Palmer).[1]
