Anna van der Breggen (born 18 April 1990) is a Dutch former professional road bicycle racer, who rode professionally between 2009 and 2021 for Team Flexpoint, Sengers Ladies Cycling Team, Rabo–Liv and SD Worx. She won the gold medal in the women's road race at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro,[3] and has won the Giro d'Italia Femminile on four occasions.[4][5] In 2018 and 2020, she won the women's road race at the UCI Road World Championships.

Considered one of the most versatile riders of her generation, Van der Breggen excelled in both the one-day classics and stage races, particularly when run on a hilly terrain. Apart from the Olympic road race title and three Giro Rosa titles, other notable wins include La Flèche Wallonne on seven consecutive occasions, Liège–Bastogne–Liège two times, the Tour of Flanders, Amstel Gold Race, Strade Bianche, Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and the European Road Race Championships.[6][7][8][9][10] In addition, she has won the general classification and numerous stages in smaller stage races.

In 2017, she won all three Ardennes classics races in one week, which earned her the nickname Queen of the Ardennes.[11] She went on to secure her second Giro d'Italia win the following summer.[4] In April 2019, she won the La Flèche Wallonne Féminine, her fifth consecutive win in the race.[12] In 2020, she won both the Individual Time Trial as well as the Road Race at the UCI World Championships.[13]

Following her retirement at the end of the 2021 season,[14] Van der Breggen now works as a directeur sportif for her final professional team, UCI Women's WorldTeam Team SD Worx–Protime.[15]
