Gillou won the French Women's Singles Championship in each of 1904, 1905, 1906 and 1908, having lost in the 1903 final to Adine Masson.[1]
Gillou's victories in 1906 and 1908 were achieved under her married name of Kate Gillou-Fenwick.[1]
It was thought that she competed in the mixed doubles event at the 1900 Summer Olympics with Pierre Verdé-Delisle,[2] but it was her sister Antoinette Gillou who competed at the Olympics.[3]
