}}
Dylan Armstrong (born January 15, 1981) is a Canadian shot putter born and raised in Kamloops, British Columbia, Canada. Armstrong is a two-time Pan American Games champion, a former Commonwealth Games champion and has also won world championship silver and bronze medals in the shotput event. He was awarded the bronze medal at the 2008 Summer Olympics in shotput seven years after the event in 2015, following a doping disqualification by competitor Andrei Mikhnevich. Armstrong holds the Canadian national record and the Pan American Games record for shotput, and is a former holder of the Commonwealth games record. With his world championship medal, Armstrong was the first Canadian to reach the podium in a throwing event in a major global competition.
==Career==
Prior to focusing on the shot put in 2004, Armstrong competed in the hammer throw.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.iaaf.org/athletes/biographies/country=can/athcode=174424/index.html )〕 As a junior, he won a gold medal at the 1999 Pan American Junior Games and a silver medal at the 2000 World Junior Championships. He continues to hold the North American high school and junior records in the hammer throw. His personal best is 71.51 meters, achieved in April 2003 in Walnut.
Armstrong achieved a personal best, and Canadian record at that time, of 21.04 meters at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where he finished fourth, missing out on a medal by a single centimetre. However, on August 20, 2014 the Canadian Olympic Committee announced that Armstrong would be awarded the 2008 Summer Olympic bronze medal by the International Olympic Committee. This followed a retroactive lifetime ban for doping violations dating back to 2005 given to Belarusian shot putter Andrei Mikhnevich, who had won the medal initially.〔http://www.thestar.com/sports/amateur/2014/08/20/canadas_dylan_armstrong_finally_gets_2008_beijing_olympics_bronze_medal_after_doping_dq.html〕
