Lolette Payot

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. It took her a year to recover, and she decided to retire from the amateur tennis circuit. In August 1945, she won the singles title at the French championships. The title, however, isn't recognized by the Fédération Française de Tennis and the International Tennis Federation.

Payot continued to work as a coach and as a secretary at Montchoisi tennis club until 1982.
