Özge Gürler (born June 17, 1985 in İzmir) is a Turkish female track running athlete in the sprint category. She is the current Turkish record holder at 400 m and 400 m hurdles disciplines.

Competing initially in the long jump and running sprint and middle distance, she specialized in 400 m and 400 m hurdles following her coach's recommendation. Özge Gürler was a member of İzmir Gençlik sports club, Anadolu University, Ankara MTA and İzmir Metropolitan Municipality sports club[1] before she transferred to Enkaspor in Istanbul. She studied Physical Education and Sports at the Ege University in Izmir.[2]

Özge Gürler participated at the 2005 Mediterranean Games in Almería, Spain in the categories 4x100 m relay, 400 m hurdles and 4x400 m relay. She ran bronze medal with her teammates Birsen Bekgöz, Pınar Saka and Binnaz Uslu in 4x400 m relay.[3]

She was admitted to the Turkey's national athletic team at the 2008 Beijing Olympics for 400 m hurdles[4] despite an injury at her foot. However, since her injury could not be cured out completely, she did not show at the competition's final run.[5]
