Gocha Khugaev, (Russian: Гоча Олегович Хугаев) (born 16 July 1984) is an Russian athlete who competes in disability athletics in the F58 category. At the 2012 European Championships Khugaev set a European record whilst winning the 200 metres.[1] He also won gold in the long jump in a combined F37/38 class, however an illegal wind reading of 2.4 m/s prevented him from setting a world record.[2] Khugaev set a F37 world record for the long jump at the London Paralympic Games as he won gold in a combined F37/38 class.[3]
