Garry Thompson is an English darts player who caused a major surprise by winning the 2008 WDF Scottish Open.

Thompson reached the quarter finals of the 2004 British Open, beating Tony David and Darryl Fitton before losing to Phill Nixon. He then reached the quarter finals of the 2007 Belgium Open, again beating Darryl Fitton along the way. He lost to Robbie Turner.

On February 17, 2008, Thompson achieved victory in the 2008 Scottish Open, with notable wins against Steve Coote, World Masters champion Robert Thornton and former World Champion Martin Adams before beating Shaun Greatbatch in the final. He received £2,000 for his efforts and as a result, he shot up the BDO and WDF rankings. Thompson then won the unranked Welsh Classic, beating Holland's Joey ten Berge in the final.
