Summer Olympics appearances (overview)

Indonesia competed at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from 5 to 21 August 2016. This was the nation's fifteenth appearance at the Summer Olympics.

Contents

The National Sports Committee of Indonesia (Indonesian : Komite Olahraga Nasional Indonesia, KONI) confirmed a team of 28 athletes, 17 men and 11 women, to compete across seven sports at the Games. [2] [3] Three of them obtained their spots to compete in athletics and swimming through wild card entries, with the rest of the team directly qualifying for the Games on merit. Among the sporting events the nation competed in, Indonesia made its Olympic debut in men's team archery and BMX cycling, as well as its return to rowing after 12 years.

The Indonesian roster featured ten returning Olympians, with three of them headed to their third straight Games: badminton shuttler Liliyana Natsir, along with her partner Tontowi Ahmad, in the mixed doubles, and two-time bronze medalists Eko Yuli Irawan and Triyatno in weightlifting. Other notable Indonesian athletes included Beijing 2008 champion Hendra Setiawan in the men's badminton doubles and long jumper and reigning Asian Games champion Maria Natalia Londa, who was appointed as the nation's flag bearer in the opening ceremony. [4]

Indonesia left Rio de Janeiro with three Olympic medals (one gold and two silvers), improving its medal tally from London four years earlier. Among the nation's medalists were badminton players Ahmad and Natsir, who both bounced back from their fourth-place finish in London to secure the mixed doubles gold, and weightlifting rookie Sri Wahyuni Agustiani, who won Indonesia's first medal of the Games with a silver in the women's 48 kg. [5] [6] Meanwhile, Irawan set a historic milestone as the first Indonesian weightlifter to win medals across three Olympic Games, winning a silver in the men's 62 kg to complement his two previous bronze medals. [7]

Sports in Indonesia are popular from both the participation and spectating aspect. Some popular sports in Indonesia are football, futsal, basketball, volleyball, badminton, and the native Indonesian martial art pencak silat. Badminton is arguably Indonesia's most successful sport. Indonesia has won gold medals in badminton in every Olympic Games since the sport was first introduced to the Olympics in 1992, with the exception of two, at the 2012 and 2024 Summer Olympics, although in latter Games, Indonesia clinched a gold medal for the first time in sport climbing and weightlifting, respectively. Indonesia became the first grand winner in Badminton Olympics back then 1992. Indonesia regularly participates in the Thomas Cup, Uber Cup, and Sudirman Cup badminton championships, then became the first nation in history to complete those three titles. Indonesia also regularly participates in regional multi-events sport, such as the Southeast Asian Games, Asian Games, and Olympic Games.

Indonesia first participated in the Olympic Games in 1952 and has sent athletes to compete in every Summer Olympic Games since then, except for two; in 1964 due to controversy around the 1962 Asian Games when they banned Israel and the then-internationally recognized Republic of China which resulted in a ban for their track and field team, and in 1980, when they participated in the U.S.-led boycott of the 1980 Summer Olympics. The National Olympic Committee for Indonesia was created in 1946 and recognized in 1952. The country has never participated in the Winter Olympic Games, which can be explained by the lack of sporting facilities for winter sports on its territory.
