Susan "Sue" Sylvester is a fictional character of the Fox musical comedy-drama series, Glee. The character is portrayed by actress Jane Lynch, and has appeared in Glee from its pilot episode, first broadcast on May 19, 2009. Sue was developed by Glee creators Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Ian Brennan. In Glee, Sue is the coach of the William McKinley High School cheerleading squad, and a ruthless bully to both students and faculty members alike. Because her cheerleading squad competes with the glee club for the school's limited funding, she is often at odds with the club and more particularly its director Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison).

Originally intended to be a recurring character, Lynch was promoted to a starring role when the Damon Wayans pilot she was working on for ABC fell through. The character has been acclaimed by critics. Mary McNamara for the Los Angeles Times has written that "Lynch alone makes Glee worth watching", while Entertainment Weekly Ken Tucker has called Sue "the greatest Broadway-musical villain to ever co-star in a TV series". On January 16, 2011, Lynch won the Best Supporting Actress – Series, Miniseries or Television Film Golden Globe Award for her performance in the role, and won the Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for her portrayal of Sue Sylvester.

Throughout the first season of Glee, Sue makes numerous attempts at sabotaging the William McKinley High School glee club, New Directions. She enlists members of her cheerleading squad, the Cheerios, to bring the club down from the inside, and conspires to lure away its star member, Rachel Berry (Lea Michele). Sue is appointed co-director of the club by Principal Figgins (Iqbal Theba), but soon scales back her involvement when her attempts to turn the club members against director Will Schuester (Matthew Morrison) fail. Hoping to impair the club's chances of winning at the show choir competition sectionals, Sue gives New Directions' set-list to the directors of their rival glee clubs. Despite having to devise a new set-list at the last moment, New Directions win by unanimous decision and Sue is suspended by Figgins. She blackmails him into allowing her back, and is selected as a judge for the regional show choir competition. Sue is ridiculed by the other judges for her lack of fame and underdog status, allowing her to empathise with the glee club members. She votes for New Directions to win, and although they place last, she blackmails Figgins into allowing them another year to compete.

Sue's personal life is also explored over the course of the season. She has a spot on the local news, "Sue's Corner", which she uses to editorialize on issues such as support for caning and pro-littering. In the episode "Wheels", Sue allows Becky Jackson (Lauren Potter), a sophomore student with Down syndrome to join the Cheerios. Will is suspicious of her motives, increasingly so when Sue donates money to the school to fund three new ramps for students with disabilities. It is revealed that Sue's older sister Jean (Robin Trocki) also has Down syndrome, and lives in a residential care facility. Sue becomes a minor celebrity when Olivia Newton-John invites her to remake the video to "Physical", after a viral video of Sue Jazzercising to the track achieves internet notoriety. She donates her share of the profits to her sister's care home.

Sue Sylvester has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
