Krzysztof Ratajski (Polish pronunciation: [ˈkʂɨʂtɔf raˈtajski]; born 1 January 1977) is a Polish professional darts player who competes in Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) events, where he is ranked world number twenty-eight. He previously participated in British Darts Organisation (BDO) tournaments; his biggest achievement in the BDO was winning the 2017 World Masters. In the PDC, Ratajski has won 11 Pro Tour ranking titles; including two on the PDC European Tour. He reached his first PDC major semi-final at the 2021 World Matchplay. He is a two-time world championship quarter-finalist, reaching the last eight at the 2021 and 2026 editions.

Nicknamed "the Polish Eagle", Ratajski is regarded as the best Polish player in the sport's history. He has represented Poland at the PDC World Cup of Darts 11 times; in 2010, 2013, and then every year from 2016 onwards. At the 2023 World Cup, Ratajski and his teammate Krzysztof Kciuk set the world record for highest pairs three-dart average, with a 118.10 average against Lithuania.
