Roos de Jong (born 23 August 1993) is a Dutch rower. She won the bronze medal at the 2020 Summer Olympics in the double sculls event together with Lisa Scheenaard, whom she has rowed with since 2017. [1] She has also won a medal at the 2019 World Rowing Championships. [2]

In addition to rowing, De Jong also has a passion for design. She, along with Bjorn van den Ende, designed the rowing unisuit worn by the Dutch national team at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games. [3] She went into isolation, after a coach and team mate tested positive for Covid-19. [4]
