He became president of the national French tennis association, Fédération Française de Tennis (FFT) in 1930 after the death of Albert Canet and was also president of the omnisport club Racing Club de France in Paris. At the time of his death in 1953 he was the vice-president of the International Tennis Federation (ITF). From 1953 until 1978 the trophy awarded to the winner of the men's singles at the French Open was called the "coupe Pierre-Gillou" in his honour. His annual ranking of the world best tennis players, issued from the early 1930s until his death, was regarded as authoritative.
