Nina Derwael (Dutch pronunciation:[dɛrʋaːl] or [dərʋaːl]; born 26 March 2000) is a Belgian artistic gymnast. She is the 2020 Olympic champion, a two-time World champion (2018, 2019), and a two-time European champion (2017, 2018) on the uneven bars. She is the 2019 European Games champion on the balance beam, as well as a two-time Belgian national all-around champion (2015, 2018).
She represented Belgium at the 2016 Summer Olympics and at the 2020 Olympics. At the 2020 Olympics, she led the Belgian gymnastics team to their first-ever team final where they finished eighth. She qualified for the all-around final where she finished sixth, and she won the gold medal in the uneven bars final, the first Olympic medal of any color for a Belgian female gymnast. She is the first Belgian gymnast to medal at the World Championships, the first to become a World champion, and the first to become a European champion.
