Darlan Romani (born 9 April 1991 in Concórdia) is a Brazilian track and field athlete specialising in the shot put.

[6] In early September 2018, representing the Americas in the IAAF Continental Cup, Darlan won gold with a 21.89 weight-shot, defeating 2017 World Champion Tom Walsh.

[9] In June 2019, at the Eugene stage of the Diamond League, he obtained the 10th-best mark (by athlete) in History in the Shot Put, 22.61.

American Ryan Crouser threw 22.71m on his fourth attempt, putting Romani back in 3rd place.

Since 1990 no one had thrown a weight over 22.80m, and the top four places in this competition (including Romani) broke the World Championship record of 22.23m.

Without proper training equipment, in early 2021, pain from a herniated disc forced him to take a break for 45 days of rehabilitation.

Taking part in the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo, Romani calmly qualified for the final with a mark of 21.31.

[22] A few days before participating in the 2024 Olympic Games, Romani had to withdraw from the competition after a medical evaluation detected a herniated disc in the shot putter, who would have to undergo surgery.
