Trae Williams (born 5 May 1997[3]) is an Australian track and field sprinter.

He is the fifth-fastest Australian of all time with a personal best time of 10.10 seconds achieved on 16 February 2018, after Patrick Johnson (9.93 in 2003), Rohan Browning (10.01 in 2021), Matt Shirvington (10.03 in 1998) and Josh Ross (10.08 in 2007).

[4][5] Williams made the decision in August, 2020 to switch from athletics to rugby sevens.

This was a gamble as it was uncertain whether he would make the Australian Rugby Sevens 2020 Olympics team.
