Jamie Lewis (born 8 November 1991) is a Welsh professional darts player who competes in Professional Darts Corporation events.
Lewis won the World Masters and WDF World Cup boys' events in 2009.
Lewis reached the last 24 of the 2010 World Masters, losing 3-2 in sets to Ted Hankey. He also reached the semi-finals of the 2011 WDF World Cup, losing out to Martin Adams 6-3.
In January 2012, Lewis successfully earned a Professional Darts Corporation tour card on day four of the PDC Pro Tour Q School. This enabled him to participate in all this and next year's Players Championships, UK Open Qualifiers and European Tour events. Lewis competed in his first UK Open in 2012, defeating Steve Farmer and Mark Stephenson before falling to Pete Hudson in the second round. In August, Lewis beat John Scott and Michael Barnard in the UK Qualifier for the fourth European Tour event of the year, the German Darts Masters, but then lost 3–6 to Richie Burnett in the first round in Stuttgart. He also won twice on the Youth Tour throughout the year.
Lewis finished fourth on the 2012 Youth Tour Order of Merit, but was the highest player who had not already qualified for the 2013 World Championship. In Lewis' first appearance in the tournament he lost to the Philippines Lourence Ilagan in the preliminary round by four legs to three, despite leading 3–1. He was ranked world number 68 after the event. At the UK Open, Lewis lost 5–3 to Tony West in the preliminary round.
