Career

Women's singles

In 2007, Zebadiah contributed to the Indonesian women's team's capture of the gold medal at the Southeast Asian Games by beating Singapore's Gu Juan 21–15, 17–21, 21–12 in the decisive match.

Perhaps her best performance came in the 2008 Uber Cup. She helped Indonesia to defeat Germany in the semifinals by dominating Karin Schnaase 21–7, 21–15.

She played in the 2008 Indonesia, Japan, and Denmark Superseries, advancing farthest in Denmark where she reached the quarterfinals.

Another good performance came at the Chinese Taipei Open, where she defeated her compatriot Maria Kristin Yulianti, who won the bronze medal at the 2008 Olympic Games, in the quarter-final. However, she lost to the young star from India, Saina Nehwal, in the semifinals.

Women's doubles

Pia Zebadiah plays in the women's doubles with Rizki Amelia Pradipta. Previously, she played with Debby Susanto, but they were often defeated in the earlier rounds of a tournament. Because she couldn't play well in several tournaments in the women's doubles discipline, she broke her partnership with Susanto. In 2011, Zebadiah decided to be a professional player along with her brother Kido, rather than be in the national training center. After becoming a professional player, she became partners with Pradipta. Together they achieved better results in women's doubles. In 2012, she with Pradipta won Chinese Taipei Open, and in 2013, they won the Malaysia Grand Prix Gold.

Mixed doubles

Pia Zebadiah played in the mixed doubles with Fran Kurniawan. She always appeared confident, and very lissom. In 2009, Zebadiah took the first title from New Zealand Open and defeated World number 10 Yohan Hadikusumo Wiratama and Chau Hoi Wah from Hong Kong. In 2010, they reached the semi-finals in the Indonesia Grand Prix Gold, but were defeated by Tontowi Ahmad and Liliyana Natsir. In 2011, they could reach their first final in the Superseries event at the India Open, but they were once again defeated by Ahmad and Natsir with just straight sets of 18–21 and 21–23. They became the main pair of mixed doubles in the Sudirman Cup due to Natsir injury.

Personal life

Zebadiah started playing badminton in Jaya Raya Jakarta badminton club. Her parents are Djumharbey Anwar (father) and Yul Asteria Zakaria (mother). In her spare time she plays football. Her brothers, Bona Septano, and Markis Kido, are also Indonesian national badminton players.
