Dexter St. Louis (born March 21, 1968) is a Trinidadian table tennis player.[2] As of January 2013, he is ranked no. 342 in the world by the International Table Tennis Federation (ITTF).[1]

St. Louis made his official debut for the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia, where he competed in the men's singles. He placed fourth in a group pool round against Brazil's Hugo Hoyama, Sweden's Jörgen Persson, and North Korea's Kim Song-Hui, with a total score of 82 points and a tally of 3 straight losses.

Twelve years after competing in his last Olympics, St. Louis qualified again for the men's singles, as a 40-year-old, at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, by winning the Latin American Qualification Tournament in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.[3] He lost the first preliminary round match to Canada's Zhang Peng, with a unanimous set score of 0–4.[4]
