Camille Serme (born April 4, 1989 in Créteil) is a professional squash player who represents France. She reached a career-high world ranking of World No. 2 in February 2017.[1][2]

As a junior player, Camille Serme won three times the European Junior Championship title in 2006, 2007 and 2008. And she was runner-up of the World Junior Championships in 2007 in Hong Kong against Raneem El Weleily.

In September 2010, she reached the semifinals of the Soho Square Women's World Open 2010. She is the first female French player to reach this level of competition.

In 2012, she reached the final of the prestigious Hong Kong Open against Nicol David.

In 2013, she achieves three big performances in just a few months. In September, she lost in the semifinals of the Malaysian Open against Nicol David. In October, she reached the final of Carol Weymuller Open and won the Monte Carlo Open beating Laura Massaro for the 2nd time in a row, the world #2, in the final 3-1.

She won, in May 2015, to that time the most important title of her career, the 2015 British Open beating Laura Massaro in the final 3 games to 1.

In October 2016 she won the US Open beating Nour El Sherbini 3-1. Three months later her victory in 2017 J.P. Morgan Tournament of Champions, her second consecutive PSA World Series event win, has catapulted her up two places to a career high World No.2 on the February 2017 PSA Women's World Rankings.

Serme won a bronze medal at The World Games 2013 and even a gold medal at The World Games 2017 in Wroclaw, Poland.
