Marcos Churio (born c. 1899) was an Argentine professional golfer.

Churio was born in Mar del Plata. He turned professional in 1920, and competed in Europe between 1931 and 1939, where his best tournament finish was 5th place in the 1931 Southport Open in England. That year, he was 7th in the British Open at Carnoustie.[1]

Churio's brother, Pedro, won several tournaments in Argentina and later designed many golf courses. His nephew, Martin Pose, won the French Open in 1939.

Churio won the Argentine Open in three decades, in 1926, 1934 and 1943. He also finished runner-up on six occasions, in 1928, 1929, 1932, 1935, 1936 and 1937.
