Patrick Jonathan Lambie (born 17 October 1990) is a retired South African professional rugby union player who last played for Racing 92 in the French Top 14.

[2] Lambie is capable of playing flyhalf, centre and fullback, and was the leading points scorer in the 2009 ABSA U21 Currie Cup[citation needed] despite only turning 19 later that year.

He represented South Africa at the under-20 level when he was selected for the squad, and was utilized extensively as the first choice fullback during the 2010 U20 World Cup in Argentina.

[citation needed] Lambie joined the Sharks senior team set up in the 2010 Super 14 season, where his debut was spent in the fullback position.

He went on to start the next seven consecutive games (losing only one match against the champion Bulls which ended their five-match winning streak) for the Sharks and scoring two tries in the process.

Lambie scored 205 points in 16 games and ended up the second highest scorer (behind Willem de Waal) in the competition.

Lambie was awarded Man-of-the-Match after the Currie Cup final in which he played his part in the Sharks' victory against the Western Province.

He came back strongly from his injury and propelled the Sharks from their dismal form, which included two losses after his departure, he then led them to 6th place on the Super Rugby log only nine points behind the Reds.

[6] The Sharks made it to the Super Rugby playoffs, but lost to the Crusaders with Lambie kicking all the penalties and conversions.

[8] During the 2011 Rugby World Cup Lambie started in the fullback berth for all the group stage games and for the quarter-final match.

He also played against the Blue Bulls in the semi-final and then eventually lost the Currie Cup final to the MTN Lions.

The next weekend the Sharks would suffer a 15–12 loss to the DHL Stormers with Lambie once again scoring the majority of his team's points.

Lambie only played three matches during the 2012 Currie Cup Tournament for the Sharks due to his international commitments for the South African National team.

Lambie finished the Currie Cup campaign with 50 points in 3 games and was selected for the South African National Team's Northern Hemisphere tour at the end of the year.

Lambie's all round play and his position of fifth on the super rugby point scorer's table got him selected for the Springbok squad for the 2012 England tour of South Africa.

He was selected as Springbok reserve fullback for The Castle Rugby Championship 2012, but was kept warming the bench in favour of the regular full back, Zane Kirchner, during the two matches against Argentina in August 2012.

On 6 October 2012 he played as reserve fullback (taking the field at the 64th minute into the game) versus New Zealand at the FNB Stadium, Soweto at the age of only 21.
