Urška Žigart

Urška Žigart (Slovene pronunciation: [ˈùːɾʃka ˈʒìːgaɾt] ⓘ) (born 4 December 1996) is a Slovenian professional racing cyclist, who currently rides for UCI Women's WorldTeam AG Insurance–Soudal.

[3] In 2020, she won the Slovenian National Time Trial Championships[4] and competed in the Tour de l'Ardeche and Giro Rosa.

[5] She finished third in the Slovenian National Road Race Championships behind her teammate Urša Pintar and Špela Kern of the Lviv Cycling Team.

[8] Žigart's partner is cyclist Tadej Pogačar,[9] a three-time Tour de France winner.

After Pogačar withdrew from the Slovenia team for the Paris Olympics due to "extreme fatigue", he said his decision was also swayed by the Slovenian Olympic Committee, which had not selected Žigart to compete at the Games.
