Michael Hyatt (born 9 April 1970) is a Jamaican table tennis player. He competed at the 1992 Summer Olympics and the 1996 Summer Olympics. [1]

He was nicknamed "the Usain Bolt of Table Tennis" in USA Table Tennis Magazine. [2]

An article published by The New York Times in 2024 detailed several incidents of Hyatt conning people into investing in what he fraudulently claimed to be a ping pong business. Repeated attempts to contact him further, both by his previous romantic partners and by news agencies, have been unsuccessful. [3]
