Sigvard Gustav Emanuel "Sigge" Hultcrantz (22 May 1888 – 4 March 1955) was a Swedish sport shooter who competed in the 1920 Summer Olympics.[1]

In 1920 he won the silver medal as member of the Swedish team in the team free pistol competition and in the team small-bore rifle event.[2] He also participated in the individual free pistol competition and in the individual small-bore rifle event but for both contests his exact place is unknown.[1]
