Marshall James (born 4 October 1970) is a Welsh former professional darts player.
He started the tournament with 3–1 victories against Willam Burksfield, and 8th seed Andy Fordham, a future BDO world champion then achieved deciding set wins against Roger Carter and defending champion Steve Beaton (in the sudden death leg, finishing with a 106 checkout after Beaton had narrowly missed one dart at double 10 for the match).
In the final against Les Wallace, James looked impressive in the earlier sets of the match and was unfortunate to trail 3–2 at the interval.
He also teamed up with Martin Phillips, Sean Palfrey and Ritchie Davies as Wales won the 1998 WDF Europe Cup.
He made his PDC UK Open debut at the 2003 tournament but lost to Mark Thomson 5–4 in the first round.
