Patsy Fagan (born 15 January, 1951) is a retired Irish professional snooker player.

A talented snooker player who won the first UK championship in 1977 (when it was a non-ranking event), Fagan seemed destined for a long and successful professional career in the game, but he became affected by a reluctance, possibly psychological, to play shots with the rest when situations demanded it in contests with his opponents.

Fagan is currently coach of the Harrow professional Alfred Burden.
