Jean-François "Jeff" Lucquin (born 25 December 1978) is a French professional golfer.
Having played on the Challenge Tour for four seasons, Lucquin finally gained his place on the European Tour for 2003 by finishing second in the 2002 Challenge Tour rankings, winning the Panalpina Banque Commerciale du Maroc Classic along the way.
After struggling in his first season on the European Tour, Lucquin regained his card for the following season at the qualifying school, since when he has steadily improved his standing each year. In 2008 he won his first European Tour title at the Omega European Masters, defeating Rory McIlroy in a playoff, and went on to finish the season ranked 52nd on the Order of Merit.
