About Lolette Payot

Lived 1910 – 1988 (aged 77). Lolette Payot was a Swiss tennis player.

Lolette Payot-Dodille (; 17 April 1910 – February 1988) was a Swiss-French tennis player.

Biography Payot was born on 17 April 1910 at Lausanne. She learned to play tennis age 8 on the courts of the Montchoisi tennis club. At the age of 13, she won the Swiss national championships for the first time.

Payot won the Swiss national championships seven times in a row from 1929 to 1935. During the Swiss championships in July 1935, Payot fell seriously ill.
