Cecilie Uttrup Ludwig (born 23 August 1995) is a Danish professional road cyclist, who currently rides for UCI Women's WorldTeam FDJ–Suez.[5]

Career

[edit]

As a junior, she competed at the 2012 UCI Road World Championships and the 2013 UCI Road World Championships.

In the 2018 La Course by Le Tour de France, she finished in 4th place, with her teammate Ashleigh Moolman taking the final podium place.[6] She also took the mountains classification in this race. After this race, she gave her first of what would become several excitable interviews, with this one including advice for any cyclist who has bad legs to have their wisdom teeth removed. At the very, end she said was so excited for chocolate and champagne and pizza and vacation.[7] Over the next few years, her results in France would only get better. The next year, she claimed the final podium place, while in 2021, she placed 2nd, and in 2022, she won a stage.

She finished on the podium in 3rd in the 2019 Tour of Flanders. Her post race interview went viral as a result of her excited and comical demeanor giving a vivid description of the passionate fans and the sprint finish as the peloton was closing in on her group of surviving breakaway riders. Near the end of the interview she described herself as a dead fish, but a happy dead fish.[8]

She finished in fourth place in the 2020 Giro Rosa, and won the green jersey as winner of the mountains classification.[9][10]

In July 2022, she was named as one of the pre-race favourites for the first edition of the Tour de France Femmes.[11] She won stage 3 of the race in a reduced sprint, and once again had a memorable post race interview. During the course of the interview she commented, through tears of joy, that the win was very satisfying considering the "fucking shit day" that she and her teammates had suffered the day before with crashes and bad luck.[12] On stage 7, which was the first of back-to-back high mountain stages, she finished third. As a result, she rose in the overall standings to fifth.[13]
