Marc Hirschi is a Swiss road cyclist, born on 24 August 1998, who rides for the UCI ProTeam Tudor Pro Cycling Team. He is known as a puncheur and one-day specialist, with wins in the hilly classics Clásica de San Sebastian and La Flèche Wallonne, and he is also a Swiss national road race champion. He began racing at the age of eleven, first in mountain biking and later on the road, track and in cyclo-cross, and was a two-time national junior road race champion in 2015 and 2016. In 2018 he won the under-23 road race at the UCI Road World Championships in Innsbruck. His breakout came in 2020, when he won a stage of his first Tour de France, took the overall combativity award, and won bronze in the world road race at Imola. Days later he won La Flèche Wallonne, the first Swiss winner since Ferdinand Kübler in 1952. He later rode for UAE Team Emirates and, in 2024, won nine professional races, his best season to that point.
