Eamon Wade Sullivan (born 30 August 1985) is an Australian former sprint swimmer, three-time Olympic medallist, and former world record-holder in two events.

In December, at the Australian National Championships he broke the 50 m national record in 22.00 s. In July 2007, Sullivan won the 50 m freestyle at the Santa Clara International Invitational Grand Prix in California in 22.30 s. Also in July, he clocked 21.62 s to slash 0.07 s off Brett Hawke's 7-year-old 50 m Short Course Australian record at Telstra Grand Prix2 in Canberra.
