Danielle McEwan (born September 1, 1991) is an American ten-pin bowler from Stony Point, New York. She currently competes on the PWBA Tour and in some events on the PBA Tour, and is a member of Team USA.
McEwan received national-level NCAA accolades during her college years, and joined Team USA beginning in 2012. Since the rebirth of the PWBA Tour in 2015, McEwan has won two titles, including a major at the 2015 Smithfield PWBA Tour Championship. She is also a two-time winner of the World Bowling Tour (WBT) Women's Finals.

In high school, McEwan chose bowling over tennis as her preferred sport.
While at Fairleigh Dickinson University (FDU), McEwan was named FDU Female Athlete of the Year (2012 and 2013) and NCAA All American (2011–2013), receiving the Professional Bowlers Association’s 2012 Billy Welu Scholarship. She was also named Northeast Conference Bowler of the Year (2012) and NCAA Player of the Year (2012 and 2013).
Through her junior year, McEwan had maintained a 3.5 grade point average while majoring in psychology.
McEwan competed in Team USA for five years, beginning in 2012.
McEwan was one of the first beneficiaries of the 2015 re-launch of the Professional Women's Bowling Association. On September 13, 2015, shortly after her 24th birthday, McEwan won the 2015 Smithfield PWBA Tour Championship, considered her first major title. At that championship, which concluded the first full season of women’s professional bowling since 2003, McEwan ranked fourth for 2015 PWBA Player of the Year.
On October 23, 2015, McEwan became the ninth woman to win a Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) regional title (the South Point PBA West Challenge held in Las Vegas, NV), qualifying her to compete in the (Jan-Feb) 2016 FireLake PBA Tournament of Champions. On October 23-24, 2015, her team "Dead Money" was the upset winner in the PBA Team Challenge. As the leading female bowler in the South Point events and the 2015 U.S. Open, McEwan was invited to participate in the 2016 DHC Japan Invitational tournament, along with 13 male PBA bowlers.
