She competed in three of the four competitions. In the mixed grass event, she won the opening match against the Norwegian Duo Molla Mallory and Conrad Langaard, but then lost to the Swedes Sigrid Fick and Gunnar Setterwall. Because of the many retreats, she was awarded fourth place. Holmström lost her first Match in each of the two singles matches. In 1911 and 1913 she reached the final of the Swedish Indoor Championships.[3]
