Kevin Wormald (Alto Hospicio, Iquique, 1996), is a Chilean weightlifter who currently competes in the -85 kg and -93 kg category. He started competing in 2010, being the 5th best athlete nationwide in the -56 kg category and under the tutelage of prominent lifter Cristián Escalante.[1]

In May 2017 he played the National Games in Biobío with 92 kilos of weight and achieved the three gold medals in his category.[2][3]

Despite his triumph, halfway through the year, a bad result at the Miami World Cup discouraged him and he stopped training until the month of January of the following year,[4] when he began his preparation for the 2018 South American Games in Cochabamba, Bolivia, where he won the bronze medal and shared a podium with the also Chilean Arley Méndez.[5]
