Chris Johns (born 10 August 1958) is a Welsh former professional darts player.
Johns played in BDO tournaments in the late 1980s and early 1990s. In 1986, Johns beat reigning world champion Eric Bristow in the last 16 of the World Masters before losing in the semi finals to Bob Anderson. In 1989 he won the BDO Gold Cup beating Eric Bristow in the quarter finals, Jamie Harvey in the semi finals and Robbie Widdows in the final. Before his Gold Cup triumph, some in the darts world had speculated that Johns couldn't handle the pressure to win a big title. Johns also said "as it is I've been playing in the local leagues recently just to ensure myself of some regular practice." Of the remaining 15 founding member players of the WDC, only Mike Gregory followed Johns in returning to the BDO.
