Best French Female Pickleball Players

FFT data for August 2026. Bonjour Pickleball update checked on 6 August 2026.

An English guide to the best French female pickleball players on the official FFT domestic circuit in France, ranked across the singles, doubles and mixed doubles categories.

The current number one in the Bonjour Pickleball Top 50 for women is Valentine VERNAZ.

Bonjour Pickleball keeps each woman only once and uses the FFT category where she ranks best, so this is not a single raw FFT table and not a worldwide ranking of every French female player.

How this page works

This English page is built from the FFT categories that include women: singles, doubles and mixed doubles. Bonjour Pickleball keeps each woman only once and uses the FFT category where she ranks best.

The FFT rankings used here include all age groups in the same published tables, including 50+ and 70+ players. There is no separate age-specific table in the data used here.

Methodology Open details

For each woman, Bonjour Pickleball keeps the FFT category where she ranks best among the three FFT categories that include women: singles, doubles and mixed doubles. The comparison uses (N-rank+1)/N, so results can be compared across categories of different sizes.

This means a woman can appear only once in this ranking, even if she is also ranked in another one of these three categories.

Exact ties: when two people end up with the same best result, we compare each person’s second-best FFT result, only when both have one in another counted category, then the third if needed, and so on. If the tie still isn’t broken after that, we then compare FFT points from the best result. If everything is still identical, both people genuinely share the same position: they are shown as tied (Ex æquo).

French women who mainly compete on international pro tours may not appear here, because this page reflects the FFT domestic circuit in France rather than the global PPA or APP scene.

Common questions Open details
Who is the best French female pickleball player?

In the Bonjour Pickleball Top 50 for women, the current number one is Valentine VERNAZ. This page follows the official FFT domestic ranking in France, not the global pro tours.

How is this women's ranking calculated?

The Fédération Française de Tennis (FFT) publishes three official rankings that include women: singles, doubles and mixed doubles. These rankings include all age groups, including 50+ and 70+. Bonjour Pickleball keeps each woman only once and uses the FFT category where she ranks best, with the formula (N-rank+1)/N so categories of different sizes can be compared fairly.

Does this page cover all French women worldwide?

No. It focuses on the official FFT rankings published in France. French women competing mainly on international tours may not appear here if they are outside the FFT domestic circuit.

Does this ranking include 50+ and 70+ women?

Yes. The FFT rankings used here combine all age groups in the same published tables, including 50+ and 70+ players. The FFT does not publish separate age-specific tables in the data used here.

Is this an official ranking?

No. The official source is the Fédération Française de Tennis. Bonjour Pickleball turns those official rankings into this readable English page, ranking each woman once by her best FFT category.
