O'Jay Ferguson (born 17 October 1993) is a Bahamian sprinter of Jamaican descent. He currently attends Western Texas College in Snyder, Texas.[1]

On 24 March 2012, Ferguson ran a personal best 46.14 sec 400 metres at the UTEP Springtime Invitational in El Paso, Texas, which would have improved the Bahamian national junior record set by Troy McIntosh in 1992, if it wasn't for Ferguson's unclear citizenship status.[2] As of May 2012, Ferguson's time ranks fourth in the world among juniors, behind only Aldrich Bailey, Steven Solomon, and Luguelín Santos.

Ferguson attended C. R. Walker High School in New Providence, The Bahamas.[3]
