Career
At the 2023 British Indoor Athletics Championships he took the title of 2023 UK national champion over 60m indoor hurdles. He then reached the finals of the 2023 European Athletics Indoor Championships in Istanbul where he finished 7th. He is currently based in Phoenix, Arizona, and trains with Phoenix Track Club under Coach Tim O'Neil.
At the 2022 World Athletics Indoor Championships, King advanced to the final after successfully winning a draw of lots and finished 6th in the final. In the semi-finals, King and Japanese athlete, Shusei Nomoto, tied for the final non-automatic qualifying position with a time of 7.565. As there were no additional lanes available, a drawing of lots took place which saw King advance to the final as a result of his race bib labelled "King" being randomly drawn from a bag.
King is a three times British champion over 110 metres hurdles (2017, 2019, 2020) and three times British champion over the 60 metres hurdles (2019, 2020, 2023) [3]
