Who is Suzie Landells?

Suzanne Ciscele Landells, known after marriage as Suzanne Dill-Macky, was an Australian individual medley swimmer of the 1980s, who won the silver medal in the 400m individual medley at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. She was an Australian Institute of Sport scholarship holder.

Raised in Queensland, Landells was selected to represent Australia in the 400m individual medley, but was not expected to do well, barely scraping into the final. Although she was left far behind by the United States' Tracy Caulkins, she swum a personal best of 4mins 48.3s to claim the silver medal.

Two years later at the 1986 Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh, Landells enjoyed more success, winning the 200-400m individual medley double, also breaking the 400m individual medley commonwealth record.
