Alain Baxter (born 26 December 1973) is a Scottish former alpine skier who was formerly a professional specialising in the slalom discipline. He is best known for failing a drug test after finishing third in the men's slalom of the 2002 Winter Olympics, resulting in him being controversially stripped of the bronze medal; he would have become the first British person to win an Olympic medal in a skiing event. The use of a nasal inhaler purchased in the US had led to the presence of a banned substance in Baxter's urine. He was allowed to return to competition, although his appeal to have the medal reinstated failed. He competed in FIS events from 1991–2009 and became known as "The Highlander". In the World Cup events, he achieved eleven top-fifteen finishes and four top-ten results.

Specjalizuje się w slalomie. W 2002 podczas Olimpiady Zimowej w Salt Lake City jako pierwszy Brytyjczyk zdobył medal w narciarstwie alpejskim. Wkrótce po tym okazało się, że jego testy antydopingowe dały pozytywny rezultat. Alain został zdyskwalifikowany przez MKOl a także odebrano mu medal. Udało mu się jednak dowieść, że metamfetamina znaleziona w jego próbkach została zażyta przez niego nieświadomie. (pl) Alain Baxter, född 26 december 1973, är en alpin skidåkare från Skottland.
