At the 1970 French Open she made the women's doubles quarter-finals (with Laura Rossouw) and lost in the singles first round to Eva Lundqvist, after having won a marathon first set 15–13, causing the tournament to fall behind schedule.[3]
Brummer appeared in the Federation Cup for South Africa in 1970, for a World Group quarter-final against the United States in Freiburg, where she was beaten in a singles rubber by Peaches Bartkowicz.[4]
