Toni Müller (born 10 May 1984[1]) is a curler from Baden, Switzerland. He currently throws fourth stones for Thomas Lips.

He is mostly known for serving as the Alternate for Ralph Stöckli's team which finished fourth at the 2009 Moncton World Championships, won a silver at the 2009 Aberdeen European Championships and a bronze medal for Team Switzerland at the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Games.

Müller won gold medals at the 2008 and the 2009 World Mixed Doubles Curling Championships with his partner Irene Schori. However, they finished seventh at the 2010 World Mixed Doubles Curling Championship after being beaten by the Chinese team of Sun Yue and Zhang Zhipeng in an extra end in the quarterfinals. In an interview post-match, Schori stated that she and Müller would consider not attending next year to give a chance to other Swiss teams to compete.[2]

Müller throws right-handed.[3]
