Cornelis Johannes Claassen Cronjé (16 April 1940 – 13 May 2009), known as Kerneels Cronjé, was a South African international rugby union player.
Cronjé was a national 220 yard hurdles champion and missed the 1960 Olympics due to injury.
An Eastern Transvaal wing three–quarter, Cronjé also had his international rugby career curtailed by injury. He was a member of the Springboks squad for the 1965 tour of Australia and New Zealand, which for Cronjé consisted of a single practice match against Western Australia "B", before he had to fly home with a leg injury.
Cronjé had a younger brother Beyers who represented Orange Free State.
