Career

She won the junior women's road race at the World Championships in 2013 and 2014 as well as a bronze medal in the scratch race at the 2013 UCI Juniors Track World Championships. In both 2014 and 2015, she won the Danish national road race championship and in 2015, she also won silver in the women's omnium at the European Track Championships. [5] Dideriksen participated in the women's omnium at the 2016 Summer Olympics. Ranking 9th after the flying lap, she surprised everyone by winning the points race thus elevating her to an overall 5th place.

On 15 October 2016, Dideriksen won the World Championship road race in Doha, Qatar, beating Kirsten Wild and Lotta Lepistö in a bunch sprint. By doing this, she joined select group riders consisting of Marianne Vos, Pauline Ferrand-Prévot, Nicole Cooke and Dideriksen's own national coach, Catherine Marsal, who are all former junior world champions who have since become elite world champions.

In October 2020, Dideriksen signed a two-year contract with the Trek–Segafredo team, from the 2021 season. [6]

At the 2020 Summer Olympics, Dideriksen again represented Denmark in the omnium discipline, finishing 4th. She also participated in the Madison with Julie Leth finishing second, bringing home an Olympic silver medal.

In August 2022, Dideriksen signed a two-year contract with the Uno-X Pro Cycling Team from the 2023 season. [7]
