Kanstantsin Sivtsov or Kanstantsin Siutsou (Belarusian: Канстанцін Віктаравіч Сіўцоў; Łacinka: Kanstancin Viktaravič Siŭcoŭ; born 9 August 1982) is a Belarusian professional road bicycle racer for UCI WorldTeam Bahrain–Merida.
Siutsou was born in the Belarusian city of Gomel in 1982. He shot to prominence in 2004, winning the Under-23 World Road Race Championships, and the senior Belarusian championships in 2006.
He joined Barloworld for the 2007 season, and rode the Tour de France for the first time, finishing 32nd overall. Siutsou moved to Team High Road for 2008, where he took his first stage race overall victory at the Tour de Georgia, and came 16th overall in the Tour de France. In the 2009 Giro d'Italia, he won his first two Grand Tour stages, the team time trial on stage one and a successful solo breakaway in stage eight.
Siutsou enjoyed his most successful year to date in 2011. He finished tenth overall in the Giro d'Italia – again winning the team time trial stage – with an eighth-place finish in the Critérium du Dauphiné, and won the Belarusian National Time Trial Championship for the first time.
