Gustave F. Touchard (born January 11 1888), was an American tennis player active in the early 1910s, famous for his elegance.

Born in New York, Touchard's most notable achievement was the U.S. Open championship doubles title in 1911, and runner-up for the same title in 1912 (both alongside Raymond D. Little). Another important achievement for Touchard was the 1912 singles title in the Cincinnati Masters tournament and runner-up for the same title in 1913. In 1912, his wife competed for the Women's Doubles title in Cincinnati, but was defeated in the final.
