Timeline
Lucia Francisca "Susi" Susanti Haditono (born 11 February 1971) is an Indonesia retired badminton player.
Relatively small of stature, she combined quick and graceful movement with elegant shotmaking technique, and is regarded by many as one of the greatest women's singles players of all time.
She is the first Indonesian Olympic gold medalist.
The World Badminton Grand Prix was sanctioned by the International Badminton Federation from 1983 to 2006.
It was held in Jakarta, Indonesia from 1987 to 1991.
Susanti was the most dominant women's singles player in the first half of the 1990s, winning the All England Open in 1990, 1991, 1993 and 1994, the World Badminton Grand Prix Finals five consecutive times from 1990 to 1994 as well as in 1996, and the IBF World Championships in 1993.
She is the only female player to hold the Olympic, World Championship, and All-England singles titles simultaneously.
She won the Japan Open three times and the Indonesian Open six times.
She also won numerous Badminton Grand Prix series events and five Badminton World Cups.
Susanti won the women's singles gold medal at the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona, Spain and the bronze medal at the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, United States.
She is married to Alan Budikusuma, a men's badminton Olympic gold medalist (also in 1992) and one of the top men's players in the history of the sport, a former Chinese Indonesian badminton player who excelled at the world level from the late 1980s to the mid-1990s.
She led the Indonesian team to victory over perennial champion China in the 1994 and 1996 Uber Cup (women's world team) competitions.
All of this came during a relatively strong period in women's international badminton.
She retired from the world badminton circuit not long after her marriage, in February 1997, to Alan Budikusuma, who had also won a badminton singles gold medal at the 1992 Summer Olympics.
Together they have three children, Laurencia Averina, born 1999, Albertus Edward, born 2000, Sebastianus Fredrick, born 2003.
When the eldest daughter was born, Indonesia was rocked by a series of civil outbreaks and violence.
Susanti decided to name her daughter Laurencia Averina Wiratama, which means “peace”, hoping that she would bring about peace in the nation.
Susanti was inducted into the International Badminton Federation (IBF, currently BWF) Hall of Fame in May 2004, and received the Herbert Scheele Trophy in 2002.
She lit the flame at the 2018 Asian Games opening ceremony.
Susanti was an extremely durable defensive player who liked to instigate long rallies to wear down her opponent's stamina and invite errors.
Susanti's matches against top-tier opponents were characteristically slow-paced and long, especially in the era of 15 points system when a player could only earn a point when she or he held the serve.
Susanti relied on deep clears to the back line, limiting the chance of a fast-paced exchange, mixed with tight drop shots, forcing her opponent to cover the entire court.
Susanti frequently covered her backhand side with overhead forehands, by relying on her quickness and back-arching suppleness.
Relatively short, she often stretched her legs very wide to take low shots at the corners or away from her position.
Developed from training, this leg-stretching, almost balletic maneuver became a signature pose which sometimes ended with a full leg split.
In the later years of her career, Susanti incorporated more smashing into her repertoire, enough to throw off opponents expecting only a game of attrition.
A biopic in Indonesian based on Susanti's life story, entitled Susi Susanti: Love All directed by Sim F with Laura Basuki playing the titular role and Dion Wiyoko as Alan Budikusuma was released on 24 October 2019.
The Bimantara World Junior Championships was an international invitation badminton tournament for junior players.
