St. John won the doubles title alongside Pat O'Hara Wood at the Australasian Championships, the future Australian Open, in 1923, and reached three more finals at the tournament, losing in singles to Pat O'Hara Wood in 1923, in doubles alongside Gordon Lowe in 1915, and in mixed doubles alongside Margaret Molesworth in 1923.[3]
