Jonathan "Jon" Davies (born 5 April 1988) is a Welsh professional rugby union player who plays at centre for the Scarlets and the Wales national team.
He is commonly known as "Fox", differentiating him from the Jonathan Davies who played both rugby union and rugby league during the 1980s and 1990s. His brother is James Davies, who also plays professional rugby for the Scarlets as a flanker.
Born to Welsh parents in Solihull, England, Davies moved at a young age with his family to Bancyfelin, Carmarthenshire, where his parents ran the Fox & Hounds Pub; Davies is nicknamed "Fox" after the pub. He attended Dyffryn Taf Comprehensive School in Whitland, Carmarthenshire, and is a fluent Welsh speaker. Davies studied Sports and Exercise course at Trinity College, Carmarthen.
Davies started his career playing age grade rugby for Llanelli RFC. He made his senior professional debut for the Llanelli Scarlets region before his first appearance for the senior Llanelli club side, playing against Northampton Saints on 11 August 2006. However, it took him until his sixth appearance (more than a year later) to score his first try, as he touched down against Connacht on 28 September 2007.
On 12 November 2013, Davies signed for top French Club Clermont Auvergne in the Top 14 on a two-year deal.
