Paul Martyn Eales (born 2 August 1963) is an English professional golfer.

Eales was born in Epping, Essex. He turned professional in 1985 and became a member of Europe's second tier Challenge Tour in 1990. The following season he won the Audi Open, and in 1992 finished third on the Challenge Tour Rankings to graduate to the main European Tour for the 1993 season.

After a solid rookie season in 1993, Eales won the 1994 Extremadura Open on his way to a career best 35th place on the European Tour Order of Merit. He performed consistently, but without winning again, mostly finishing within the top 100 on the Order of Merit until 2004, when he lost his tour card.

Eales was the assistant professional to Eddie Birchenough at Royal Lytham & St Annes Golf Club, where he first became an assistant in 1987. He is now playing on the European Senior Tour. Hew won the Scottish Senior Open in August 2016 and the Jamaican Open in January 2017. He is a Non-Executive Board member of the European Tour. He regularly works as a broadcaster and golf analyst for various media companies including European Tour Productions, R&A Open Golf Radio, Ryder Cup Radio, NBC Golf Channel, Sirius XM, BBC Radio 5 Live and Sky Sports. His main sponsor during his time on the European Tour was UK bank Northern Rock. His current sponsors on the Senior Tour include Lynx Golf, Powwownow, Sunice and Titleist.
