Tony Martin (born May 10, 1981) is a darts player with the British Darts Organisation (BDO).

Martin started his darts career playing in British Darts Organisation tournaments and was a runner-up in the British Classic to Mervyn King in 2002. He reached other finals at the Swedish Open in 2004 losing to Shaun Greatbatch and the Norway Open in 2005 losing to Michael van Gerwen. He also reached the quarter finals of the Dutch Open in 2004.

Tony started playing with merseyside youth at the age of 18. At the age of 21 he was selected to play for the county of Clwyd. In his first season he gained the British Darts Organisation Young Player Of The Year Award.

He only managed one appearance at the Lakeside Country Club for the BDO World Darts Championship when he lost a first round match in 2005 to Simon Whitlock.

He switched to compete in the Professional Darts Corporation for several months but announced in August 2007 that he would be returning to compete on the BDO circuit. [ [http://www.starsofdarts.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7751 Martin switches back to BDO] ] He cites the fact that his Russian partner Anastasia Dobromyslova competes on the same circuit as one of the reasons he is moving back to the British Darts Organisation and also that he lost his main sponsor Masterdarts
