Seymour MacDonald Nurse (b. 10 November, 1933) in Barbados, played 29 Tests for the West Indies.

Nurse was a powerfully-built batsman who batted in the middle-order. His debut came against England in Kingston on the 17th of February 1960. He scored a fluent 70 in his maiden innings. Nurse starred in the 1966 West Indian tour of England where he passed 50 five times in as many Tests. He smashed a series best 137 at Headingley. He ended his Test career in style with an innings of 258 at Christchurch in 1968-69, the highest score by a man in his last test innings in which he hit 34 boundaries and a six. He finished the 3 Test series with 558 runs at 111.60 with his average being a record that stands to this day as the highest for a player's final Test series (minimum 3 Tests).

Nurse was a Wisden Cricketer of the Year in 1967.
