Career overview

Borghesi turned professional in 2017 and claimed her first major victory with a stage of the Giro d’Italia Women in 2019. After three seasons with EF Education-TIBCO-SVB, she remained with the organisation through its transition to EF-Oatly-Cannondale and EF Education-Oatly. Her breakthrough Classics campaign came in 2025, when she finished second at Paris-Roubaix Femmes and sixth at the Tour of Flanders.

Her combination of endurance, positioning and strength over difficult terrain has made her particularly effective in demanding one-day races.
