Competing in the 1931 U.S. Women's Amateur, Wilson was eliminated in the semi-finals by ultimate champion Helen Hicks.

She returned to the U.S. for the 1932 Amateur but went out in the quarter-final. In the 1933 U.S. Amateur she lost in the semi-finals to the ultimate tournament champion Virginia Van Wie but won the medal for lowest round with a record-setting score.
In 1933, Wilson partnered with Walter Hagen to play a match at the Bruntsfield Links in Edinburgh, Scotland. She co-wrote So That's What I Do! with Robert Allen Lewis that was published in 1935. She also wrote the section on women's golf in the 1952 book A History of Golf in Britain edited by golf writer Bernard Darwin and contributed to by several notables from the world of British men's golf. As well, she wrote A Gallery of Women Golfers'' with the foreword by Bernard Darwin that was published in 1961 in London by Country Life Ltd..
