Monique Hennagan (born May 26, 1976 in Columbia, South Carolina) is an American athlete, who mainly competes in the 400 meters. She won her first relay medal at the 1999 World Indoor Championships and her second in 2003.

At the Athens Olympics in 2004, Hennagan was part of the US team which finished first in the 4 x 400 meters relay. They were however disqualified in 2010 after Crystal Cox, who ran for the team in a preliminary round, admitted to using doping.[1]

In 2008, Hennagan had her relay medal from the 4 x 400 meters relay from 2000 Olympics stripped because of teammate Marion Jones admitting to performance enhancing drug use. On July 16, 2010, She and 6 other members of the US Women's Track and Field team won their appeal to the IOC to have their medals reinstated.[2]
