John Paul Cain (born January 14, 1936) is an American professional golfer who played on the Senior PGA Tour.

He helped the Red Raiders win the last two Border Conference championships in 1955 and 1956. In 1959, Cain helped the team win the Southwest Conference championship and place fifth in the NCAA Championship.cite web | title=Biographical information from Texas Tech Red Raiders Athletic's Official Site | url=http://texastech.cstv.com/trads/hoh-ad.html | accessdate=2007-12-05]

Cain worked as a stockbroker in Houston until turning professional in 1988 at the age of 52. He won his first tournament a year later at the Greater Grand Rapids Open, becoming only the second Monday qualifier (after Larry Mowry) to win a Senior PGA Tour event.cite news | title=Qualifier Captures Seniors' Tournament | publisher=New York Times | date=July 17, 1989 | url=http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=950DE1DA163BF934A25754C0A96F948260 | accessdate=2007-12-05] In 1994, Cain, playing as a sponsor's exemption, earned his second Senior Tour title at the Ameritech Senior Open by one stroke over Jim Colbert and Simon Hobday, both of whom had also finished at T-2 the previous year.
