Tennis star Lois Boisson's joke about her body odor, explained
Tennis star Lois Boisson's joke about her body odor, explained Lois Boisson came into the 2025 French Open as a relative unknown, a 22-year-old ranked 361st in the world coming into the Grand Slam who had been ranked 152nd back in 2024. But the Dijon, France native has made a splash in front of the home crowd, making it to the quarterfinals after winning her first three matches, including a three-set upset over No. 3 seed Jessica Pegula. Which brings us to something about Boisson you might not know, or maybe you've seen some jokes online: there's a lot of talk about body odor. Where did that all come from? We're here to help you out: Who is Lois Boisson? As we mentioned, she's a 22-year-old French native who became the lowest-ranked player in the French Open quarterfinals in 40 years. What's with the Lois Boisson body odor jokes? Let's go back to April. She was playing against Harriet Dart in the Rouen Open and defeated the British tennis player, but not before Dart was overheard asking the umpire this: "Can you tell her to wear deodorant? She smells really bad." How did Boisson respond? With some humor: Did Dart apologize for the comments? Yes. Via Reuters:
