Norm Duke (March 25 1964-) is an American professional bowler.

Born in Mount Pleasant, Texas, he moved in Dallas, after his father sold the bowling alley their family owned. He began bowling at age 7, and turned pro at age 18. That year, he became the youngest player in Professional Bowlers Association history to win a title by winning the 1983 Cleveland Open.

He has bowled 36 perfect games in national competition and has won 23 PBA titles, including the American Bowling Congress Masters and PBA National Championship. He has also bowled the highest-scoring losing game in televised PBA history, losing 296-280 to Bryan Goebel in 1994. He also holds the record for stringing the most amount of consecutive strikes in a row with 36. This did not however earn him a 900 series as it took place over a 4 game series.

Duke is somewhat unusual as a bowler, being of smaller stature in a sport typically dominated by larger men. He is married, with one son, and currently lives in Clermont, Florida.

Height: 5 ft 6 in (1.68 m) Weight: 128 lb (58 kg)
