Reynaud Syverne "Rey" Robinson (born January 4, 1952) is an American athlete.
At the age of 20, he finished second to Eddie Hart at the Olympic Trials in Eugene, Oregon, equalling the world record at 9,9 s, and thus became one of the favorites for the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich.
Although he was a co-holder of the world record for the 100 m, he was eliminated in his quarterfinal heat when he and teammate Eddie Hart missed the start due to their coach, Stan Wright, who had incorrect information about when the race would start.
