David King (born 13 June 1994) is an English Olympic athlete specialising in the high hurdles.[1] He is a three times British champion over 110m hurdles and three times British champion over 60m hurdles. He represented Team GB at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics (held in 2021) and made the semi-finals, finishing 19th overall. At the 2023 British Indoor Athletics Championships he took the title of 2023 UK national champion over 60m indoor hurdles. He then reached the finals of the 2023 European Athletics Indoor Championships in Istanbul where he finished 7th. He is currently based in Phoenix, Arizona, and trains with Phoenix Track Club under Coach Tim O'Neil.

At the 2022 World Athletics Indoor Championships, David advanced to the final after successfully winning a draw of lots and finished 6th in the final. In the semi-finals, David and Japanese athlete, Shusei Nomoto, tied for the final non-automatic qualifying position with a time of 7.565. As there were no additional lanes available, a drawing of lots took place which saw David advance to the final as a result of his race bib labelled "King" being randomly drawn from a bag.

David is a three times British champion over 110 metres hurdles (2017, 2019, 2020) and three times British champion over the 60 metres hurdles (2019, 2020, 2023) [2]

His personal bests are 13.37 seconds in the 110 metres hurdles (Turku 2021) and 7.57 seconds in the 60 metres hurdles (Madrid, 2022).
