Owen Andrew O'Loughlin Farrell (born 24 September 1991) is an English professional rugby union player who plays as a fly-half for Top 14 club Racing 92. Although fly-half is his preferred position, he frequently played at inside centre at test level. He spent the majority of his club career with Premiership side Saracens. He is known for his goal kicking prowess.

Since 2012, Farrell has represented England internationally. With over 1,200 points scored in over 100 tests, Farrell is one of the highest point scorers in test history, and holds the record for highest points scored as a player at both England and Saracens.

His father, Ireland's current head coach Andy Farrell, played both rugby union and rugby league for England, and was captain for England rugby league and his club Wigan Warriors.
