Thomas Jørgensen is a Danish speedway rider, born 14 July 1992, Aalborg, Denmark.

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.

Thomas returned to the UK late in 2010 for a one off meeting at Scunthorpe where he became winner of the inaugural Rob Woffinden memorial trophy.
