Albert (Ab) Adam "Spats" Gowanlock (December 14, 1900 – September 27, 1988) was a Canadian curler from Manitoba.

Gowanlock began curling in his hometown of Glenboro, Manitoba.

Gowanlock and his rink of E. C. "Bung" Cartwell, Bill McKnight and Tom McKnight became the first team from rural Manitoba to win the Brier in 1938.

He would win a second Brier in 1953 with teammates Jim Williams, Art Pollon and Russ Jackman.

Gowanlock won four Manitoba Curling Association Bonspiels in his career, and played in 57 consecutive tournaments.
