Muhammad Khan (born 14 August 1934) is a Pakistani athlete. He competed in the men's triple jump at the 1960 Summer Olympics. [1]

Although Khan only jumped 14.43 m at the Olympics and did not qualify for the finals, he did improve his best to 15.05 m in 1962. [2] [3] That same year, he entered in the long jump and triple jump at the 1962 Asian Games. He finished in the top 9 in the triple jump there, where his season's best would have been good enough to win the bronze medal. [4]
