Daniel Hayden (born 1965 in Buffalo, New York[1]) is a retired American gymnast. Hayden was a United States men's national artistic gymnastics team member and appeared at the 1985 and 1987 World Championships. He was a US national champion.[2] Hayden competed for Arizona State University and was a collegiate national champion. In 1988, he was second at the Olympic Trials during the first day of competition but fell to eighth on the second day when he twice missed a Kovacs release on the horizontal bar. He was not selected for the team but was named as an alternate.[3][4]

Hayden's twin brother, Dennis, was also an elite gymnast. The two own a gymnastics facility in Augusta, Georgia.[5][6][1] Both brothers were star junior athletes and moved away from home to train.[7]

He was inducted into the USA Gymnastics Hall of Fame in 2004.[8]
