contents In this paper, we study the fundamental group of the complete steady gradient Ricci soliton with nonnegative sectional curvature. We prove that the fundamental group of such a Ricci soliton is either trivial or infinite. As a corollary, we show that an $n$-dimensional complete $κ$-noncollapsed steady gradient Ricci soliton with nonnegative sectional curvature must be diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^n$.
