Penny McCoy (born October 9, 1949) is a former World Cup alpine ski racer from the United States.

At age 16, McCoy won the bronze medal in the women's slalom at the 1966 World Championships in Portillo, Chile, held in August.[3][4] She had six top ten finishes in World Cup competition.

Shortly before the 1968 Olympics, McCoy and Sandy Shellworth[2][5] were left off the U.S. team by head coach Bob Beattie,[6][7] displaced by new arrivals Kiki Cutter and Judy Nagel. Shellworth did get to compete, as an injury replacement in the downhill, but McCoy did not.[8]
