Emma Hinze (born 17 September 1997) is a German professional racing cyclist.[1] She competed in the 2016[2] and 2020 UCI Track Cycling World Championships, winning in individual and team sprint as well as in Keirin. Triple world champion, she was seen as a favourite for the Tokyo Olympics (postponed to 2021[3] due to the COVID-19 pandemic),[4] but ultimately failed to win an individual medal, falling to eventual gold medal winner Kelsey Mitchell in the semi-finals and the losing the bout for the bronze medal against Lee Wai-sze. With her partner Lea Friedrich, she was more successful in the team sprint, winning silver.[5] For winning the silver medal at Tokyo she was awarded by the President of the Federal Republic of Germany with the Silver Laurel Leaf, Germany's highest sport award.[6]
