David Florence (born 8 August 1982) is a retired British slalom canoeist who competed at the international level from 1999 to 2021.[2][3] He is the 2013 and 2015 world champion in individual single canoe (C1) and 2013 champion in double canoe (C2), the latter with Richard Hounslow. Florence was the first canoeist since Charles Dussuet, sixty years earlier, to achieve the C1, C2 double at the same World Championships.

Florence won silver medals at three consecutive Olympics: in the C1 in 2008 and in the C2 in 2012 and 2016 (with Richard Hounslow).[1]

He announced his retirement from the sport in May 2022.[4]
