Quinten Hann (born June 4, 1977) is an Australian professional snooker player.

Hann is one of the more temperamental players on the circuit, sometimes letting his frustration at poor play get the better of him. He has been known to break off by smashing into the pack of reds.

Hann has been ranked in the top 16 for two seasons. He has reached the quarter-finals of four ranking tournaments.

He missed several ranking events after breaking his wrist and collar bone whilst motorcycle racing in 1999. He also broke his foot in a parachute jump in 2001, and was forced to play shoeless in the UK Championship.

More recently, in the 2004 World championships, he was rebuked for making threatening comments to Andy Hicks when he lost 10–4 to the unseeded outsider.

For years, he has criticised the UK, preferring to commute to tournaments from Australia. However, he has recently relocated to London. There is a feeling that, with a little more discipline and determination, Hann could reach the very top.
