Biography

[edit]

A right-handed player from Quebec, Marois was a regular competitor at the local Challenge Bell WTA Tour tournament, appearing in every main draw from 1999 to 2004.[1]

Marois featured in the doubles rubber of four Fed Cup ties for Canada, all in 2004 and partnering Marie-Ève Pelletier.[2]

Retiring in 2005 due to fibula tendonitis, she has since remained involved in tennis as an occasional commentator for Canadian French language broadcaster RDS.[3][4]
