Jacques Brugnon, nicknamed Toto, was a French tennis player from Paris and one of the Four Musketeers who dominated tennis in the late 1920s and early 1930s. He was mainly a doubles specialist, winning 10 Grand Slam doubles titles across the French, American, Australian and British championships and two mixed doubles titles at Roland Garros with Suzanne Lenglen. His best singles result was a Wimbledon semifinal in 1926. Between 1921 and 1934 he appeared 31 times for the French Davis Cup team, helping win the cup in 1927 and defend it through 1931. He competed at the 1920 and 1924 Olympics, and the Four Musketeers entered the International Tennis Hall of Fame together in 1976.
