Wayne Tuck Jr. is a Canadian curler from Strathroy, Ontario.[2]

Tuck is a two time provincial mixed champion, having won the Ontario provincial mixed championship at the 2002 and 2009 events. At the 2002 Canadian Mixed Curling Championship, he skipped the Ontario team to a 10-1 round robin record, but they lost both their playoff matches, including the final to Nova Scotia, skipped by Mark Dacey.[3] The 2009 Canadian Mixed Curling Championship was another successful event for Tuck, who finished the round robin with an 8-3 record. They lost again in the final, this time to Manitoba, skipped by Sean Grassie.[4]

Tuck also won the Dominion Regalia Silver Tankard in 1997, skipping one of the two rinks for the champion Ilderton Curling Club.[5]

Tuck is married to Kim Tuck[6] (née Veale), who played third for him in both of his provincial mixed championships. The pair won the 2014 Canadian Mixed Doubles Curling Trials and represented Canada at the 2014 World Mixed Doubles Curling Championship where they lost in the round of 16.
