Courtney Hurley (born September 30, 1990) is an American fencer.[1] She won a bronze medal in the women's team épée alongside Maya Lawrence, Susie Scanlan, and Kelley Hurley at the 2012 Summer Olympics. A standout at the University of Notre Dame, she was a 4-time All-American. She has qualified to represent the United States in fencing at the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo in 2021.

Coached by her father, Bob Hurley, Courtney has competed since age 15 with her older sister Kelley internationally: at the 2012 Summer Olympics, they were the part of the first U.S. Women's Épée Team to earn an Olympic medal, a bronze. Following the 2016 Summer Olympics, they are training arduously for the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo.
