Betty Batt (7 February 1916 – 26 March 2003) was a British tennis player of the 1930s and 1940s.
A London native, Batt won the British junior hard court title in 1934 and featured in her first Wimbledon main draw the following year.[1] In 1946 she appeared for Great Britain in the Wightman Cup, partnering Molly Lincoln in doubles, then two weeks later made the Wimbledon doubles quarter-finals with Lincoln.[2]
Batt's first marriage, in 1940, was to Noel Passingham, with whom she had one child.[3] She divorced Passingham in 1949 and soon after was married to Frank Martin-Davies, a colonial administrator in Nigeria.[4]
