Ilya Yevgenyevich Korotkov (Russian: Илья Евгеньевич Коротков; born 6 December 1983) is a Russian javelin thrower.
He represented Russia at the Olympics at the 2008 Beijing Olympics and finished seventh in the final. The following year he took silver at the inaugural European Team Championships in Leiria, Portugal, but he could not repeat his medal success at the 2009 World Championships in Athletics, where he failed to make the final of the event.
