Thanks to Rollo for originally creating this thread, and for have given me the responsibility of the new thread, that is for listing ladies tennis championship winners by event.
When a tennis player marries I will use both the maiden name and the married name, in chronological order, and I will maintain them in following years. ( It will be difficult with some divorced and remarried players.... but I will try to always use the maiden name and the married name at the time she was playing. )
When a married player doesn't use her married name ( that so doesn't appear in the honour rolls ) , I will use the maiden name only.
Obviously every correction and addition will be very welcome!
The first edition of the Malayan Championships was played in 1921; women participated for the first time in 1925; since 1964 this event was called the Malaysian Championships.

Thanks Mark, I have added all your above info, except Montreux 1913 (April 7) M. Martin d. Claire Bardot (FRA) 6-2, 6-2, because on April 14 we have the same final and score as "Lake Léman Championships".
Can you check if they are the same tournament?
