Thomas Jørgensen (born 14 July 1992, Aalborg, Denmark), is a Danish speedway rider. Thomas first came to notice in the UK in July 2010 whilst a member of the Team Viking touring side. In a meeting against Plymouth he smashed the track record and became the first rider to go below 50 seconds. Following a string of impressive performances on that tour Thomas attracted the attention of several Premier League clubs, eventually signing a contract with Scunthorpe Scorpions for the 2011 season.
