Yasser Mohamed Tahar Triki, OLY (Arabic: ياسر تريكي; born 24 March 1997) is an Algerian athlete competing in the long jump and triple jump.[3] He won the silver medal in the long jump at the 2017 Summer Universiade.

Triki broke the Algerian record in the triple jump with 17.31 meters achieved in Algiers meeting on 4 June 2021, thus qualifying to the 2020 Summer Olympics. In June 2021, he won the gold medals in both long jump and triple jump at the 2021 Arab Athletics Championships held in Tunis with jumps of 7.96 meters and 17.26 meters, respectively.
