Robert Cross (born 21 September 1990) is an English professional darts player who competes in Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) events, where he reached a peak ranking of world number two in 2018 and 2019. Nicknamed "Voltage", Cross won the PDC World Darts Championship in 2018 after turning professional less than a year beforehand. He has won three other PDC major titles: the 2019 World Matchplay and the European Championship in 2019 and 2021. Cross has won a total of 22 PDC titles.

Before turning professional in 2017, Cross reached the last 32 of the 2016 UK Open, losing there to Michael van Gerwen. He won four titles on the PDC Challenge Tour in 2016, which earned him his PDC Tour Card. Cross won his first four PDC ranking titles in his first year on tour, followed by his maiden World Championship win in 2018, where he defeated Phil Taylor 7–2 in the final. Outside of his four major victories, Cross has won five World Series of Darts titles, two European Tour titles, and 11 Players Championships. He has also represented England at the PDC World Cup of Darts four times, reaching the final of the 2020 edition alongside teammate Michael Smith.
