Saad Shaddad Al-Asmari (Template:Langx) (born 24 September 1968) is a retired Saudi Arabian runner who specialized in the 3000 metres steeplechase.
He has won five medals from the Asian Championships, three from the Arab Athletics Championships and a gold medal from the 1997 Asian Cross Country Championships. He is remembered as one of the few to break the Kenyan domination in the 1990s of all steeplechase medals in the World Championships when he won the bronze medal in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1995.[1] He still holds the Saudi national record for the 3000 meter steeplechase.
