Florent Claude (born 11 November 1991) is a French-born Belgian biathlete.
Florent Claude is originally a French biathlete, born in Remiremont, in the Vosges, in 1991. He has a Master in physical training from the Université Grenoble Alpes. Due to a lack of chances to compete at the highest biathlon level in France, he relocated to Belgium, where he formed a team with Michael Rösch, another naturalized experienced biathlete (Olympic gold medal in the relay in 2006 with Germany). In June 2017 Claude acquired the Belgian nationality.[2] His brothers Fabien Claude and Emilien Claude are also biathletes and compete for France.
In 2018, Claude competed at the 2018 Winter Olympics with Michael Rösch as the first Belgian Olympic biathletes ever.[3] Their relay teammate Thierry Langer also competed but as a cross-country skier, not a biathlete. The Belgian biathlon relay team did not qualify for the Olympics.
