Jan Lehane O'Neill (born 9 July 1941) is a former Australian female tennis player.

At the Australian Championships, O'Neill reached the singles final four consecutive years (1960–1963) but lost to Margaret Court each time. O'Neill had a similar experience in women's doubles, reaching the final twice (in 1961 with Mary Bevis Hawton and 1963 with Lesley Turner Bowrey) but losing each time to a team that included Court (with Mary Carter Reitano in 1961 and Robyn Ebbern in 1963). O'Neill, had more success in the mixed doubles, twice winning the title (in 1960 with Trevor Fancutt and 1961 with Bob Hewitt). However, Mike Sangster and O'Neill lost the 1964 mixed doubles final to Court and Ken Fletcher.

According to Lance Tingay of The Daily Telegraph and the Daily Mail, O'Neill was ranked in the world top ten in 1960, 1963, and 1964, reaching a career high of World No. 7 in those rankings in 1963.
