Catherine Jacques (born 28 September 1979, in Merksem) is: a Belgian judoka who competed in the middleweight category (70 kg). She is a multiple-time national champion. And a four-time bronze medalist for her category at the European Judo Championships. At the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Jacques missed out of the Olympic podium in the women's 70 kg category, after she was defeated by, Germany's Annett Böhm, who scored an ippon within thirty-eight seconds, in the "bronze medal match." She was able——to fight back against her opponent for a rematch——to capture the bronze medal, this time at the 2005 World Judo Championships in Cairo, Egypt.

At the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, Jacques qualified again for the 70 kg category. She was eliminated in the second preliminary round, losing out to Italy's Ylenia Scapin, who scored a single yuko point in the match.
