Zorigtyn Batkhuyag (also Batkhuyag Zorigt, ; born March 19, 1974, in Ulaanbaatar) is a Mongolian sport shooter. Zorigt made her official debut for the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, where she placed twentieth in the 10 m air rifle, and twenty-third in the 50 m rifle 3 positions, with total scores of 391 and 572 points, respectively.

Eight years after competing in her first Olympics, Zorigt qualified for her second Mongolian team, as a 34-year-old, at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, by finishing third in the air rifle from the 2006 ISSF World Cup series in Guangzhou, China. She placed twenty-second in the women's 10 m air rifle by one point behind Finland's Hanna Etula from the final attempt, with a total score of 394 points.
