As the second seeded foreign player, Sampson reached the singles final of the 1953 Australian Championships, losing to Maureen Connolly in straight sets.[2]
Sampson and Rex Hartwig teamed to win the mixed doubles title at the 1953 Australian Championships, defeating Connolly and Ham Richardson in the final 6–4, 6–3. Sampson and Hartwig reached the mixed doubles final at the 1953 U.S. Championships, losing to Doris Hart and Vic Seixas 6–2, 4–6, 6–4.

At both the French Championships and Wimbledon in 1953, Connolly and Sampson lost in the final to Doris Hart and Shirley Fry Irvin. The score in the Wimbledon final was 6–0, 6–0, which was the only double bagel in the history of Wimbledon women's doubles finals. At the 1953 U.S. Championships, Connolly and Sampson once more lost to Hart and Irvin, again in the final 6–4, 6–3.
Sampson was ranked tenth in the year-end rankings issued by the United States Lawn Tennis Association for 1952 and 1953.[3]
