Ronwen Williams (born 21 January 1992) is a South African professional soccer player who plays as a goalkeeper for South African Premier Division club SuperSport United and South African national team.

International career[]

Williams made his first match for South Africa on 5 March 2014, in a friendly against Brazil, due to a sprained ankle suffered by the first-choice keeper, Itumeleng Khune.[1][2] In August 2021, new Bafana coach Hugo Broos named Williams as the new Bafana Bafana captain, taking the armband from Thulani Hlatshwayo who failed to make the squad.
