Chelsea Wolfe, born on 5 May 1993, is an American freestyle BMX cyclist. She was an alternate for the women's BMX freestyle team representing the United States at the 2020 Summer Olympics, which made her the first openly transgender sportsperson to qualify for the Olympics for the United States. She began traveling across the United States to compete in 2016, after it was announced that freestyle BMX would be included in the 2020 Games, and placed fifth at the UCI BMX World Championships in 2021, earning her place as an alternate. In 2023 she was scheduled to compete at the UCI BMX World Championships in Scotland, where a world title would have qualified her to represent the United States at the 2024 Summer Olympics.
