Tala Abujbara (Arabic: تالا أبو جبارة; born 22 July 1992[1]) is a Qatari rower.[2] She competed in the women's single sculls event at the 2020 Summer Olympics.[3]

She learned to row while studying at Williams College, where a coach saw her potential and she joined the team.[4] Upon returning home to Qatar, she had nobody to pair with, so she switched to the single sculls.[4]
