Dan Hayden (born 1965) is a retired American gymnast. Hayden was a member of the 1985 and 1987 World Championships teams. He was a US national champion.[1] Hayden competed for Arizona State University and was a collegiate national champion. In 1988, he was second at Olympic Trials during the first day of competition but fell to eighth the second day when he twice missed a Kovacs release on the high bar. He missed selection to the team and was named an alternate.[2][3]
Hayden's twin brother, Dennis, was also an elite gymnast. The two own a gymnastics facility in Augusta, Georgia.[4][5][6] Both brothers were star junior athletes and moved away from home to train.[7]
Hayden has a skill named after him on high bar: a double layout with a full twist over the bar.[8] He was inducted into the USA Gymnastics Hall of Fame in 2004.[9]
