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 a member of the Swedish team in the team free pistol and team small-bore rifle events.[2] He also participated in the individual free pistol competition and in the individual small-bore rifle event, but for both contests his exact placement is unknown.[1]

At the time of the 1920 Olympics, Hultcrantz was a lieutenant in the Swedish Coast Artillery. He eventually reached the rank of major and served as the commandant of Älvsborg fortress from 1936 to 1939.[3]
