Stuart Clayton Williams (born August 12, 1969 in Nevis) is a West Indian cricketer. He has a slog-heavy style of play, hitting as many balls as possible down to the covers. During his career he made one century, a 128 against India, but when he had another chance to make these kinds of runs, he reverted to his risky style, achieving a mere 91 runs in five innings.

He had a little finger amputated in 2004 following a fielding accident in which gangrene infected the finger, and there was no other alternative but to amputate. He has since recovered.
