Kyle Stolk (born 28 June 1996) is a South African born Dutch swimmer. He lives in Waalre and represents the Netherlands at international competitions. He trains at the Pieter van den Hoogenband Swimming Stadium in Eindhoven.

He was born in South Africa. His parents found it too dangerous for him and his brother to grow up there, and so they moved to Ireland when Stolk was eleven years old. Later, due to his swimming progression, he moved again with his family. Because his father is Dutch, they moved to the Netherlands in 2011.^[1]

At the 2015 World Championships he qualified with the Dutch team for the 2016 Summer Olympics. He finished 7th in the final of the 4 × 200 metre freestyle relay.
