Grant James Fox (born 6 June 1962 in New Plymouth) is former rugby union player from New Zealand. He attended Auckland Grammar school.

During his time with the All Blacks from 1985 to 1993 he wore the number 10 jersey (first five eighth of fly-half), and was the main goal kicker for the All Blacks. He is considered a true pioneer of the modern art of goal kicking in particular the technicalities of leaning the ball forward which has been adopted by all world class kickers since. Although not a great runner with the ball in hand he made up for this with fantastic distribution skills reinforced by his long term colleague John Kirwan's world record career statistics playing outside him for Auckland and the All Blacks. The highlight of his career was the win in the inaugural Rugby World Cup in 1987 , won partly due to his accurate kicking.
