Summer Olympics appearances (overview)

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] 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.[6]
