Suzy Batkovic-Brown (née Batković) (born 17 December 1980 in Lambton, New South Wales, Australia) is an Australian-Croatian women's basketball player who plays in Australia and the American WNBA. The 6'4", 195-pound Batkovic-Brown is a bruising center known for her physical play and dominance inside. She played on Australia's two-time silver medal-winning "Opals" national team at the 2000, 2004, and 2008 Summer Olympics.

Batkovic-Brown was drafted in the second round of the 2003 WNBA Draft by the Seattle Storm, but did not come to the United States to play for the Storm until two years later. On the court, she forms a fearsome double-post tandem with her Opals teammate Lauren Jackson. The KeyArena fans frequently refer to her as "Batgirl".
