Robert 'Bobby' Donnelly (born 12 September 1962) is a South African lawn bowler.

Donnelly secured a silver medal in the fours at the 2000 World Outdoor Bowls Championship before competing in the 2002 Commonwealth Games bowls singles after receiving a late call up as an injury replacement. He took a surprise gold medal defeating Jeremy Henry in the final.[1]

A second Commonwealth Games gold came his way in the men's triples at the 2014 Commonwealth Games.[2]
