Roger Kingdom, född 26 augusti 1962 i Vienna i Georgia, är en amerikansk före detta friidrottare (häcklöpare).
Kingdom har en imponerande karriär på 110 meter häck. Vid OS 1984 vann Kingdom 110 meter häck, en bedrift han upprepade fyra år senare i OS-finalen 1988 i Seoul. Med tiden 12,98 blev Kingdom förste man under 13 sekunder vid ett olympiskt spel. 1989 satte Kingdom nytt världsrekord då han sprang in på tiden 12,92 - en tid som stod sig till 1993 då Colin Jackson nådde 12,91.
Vid VM 1995 i Göteborg blev Kingdom bronsmedaljör.
Idag arbetar Kingdom som friidrottstränare.

Flag of Jamaica. “The sunshine, the land is green, and the people are strong and bold” is the symbolism of the colours of the flag. GOLD represents the natural wealth and beauty of sunlight; GREEN represents hope and agricultural resources; BLACK represents the strength and creativity of the people. The original symbolism, however, was "Hardships there are, but the land is green, and the sun shineth", where BLACK represented the hardships being faced.
