Holmqvist was born in Switzerland to Yvonne and Hans Holmqvist, a Swedish professional footballer with 27 appearances for the national team, who played for Young Boys in Bern at the time. After finishing high school in Stockholm she moved to the United States and played college golf at Tulane University for a year before transferring to University of California, Berkeley and the California Golden Bears. She got a taste of the LPGA Tour in 2014 when she played in ten events after earning partial status by finishing in a tie for 44th at the 2013 LPGA Qualifying Tournament. She secured her 2016 LPGA Tour membership by finishing fifth on the 2015 Symetra Tour money list.
Holmqvist first received international headlines in 2013 when what tournament officials believe was a redback spider, relative of the famed black widow, nipped her leg during a qualification round for the Women's Australian Open at Royal Canberra Golf Club. Holmqvist swatted the spider away, used a golf tee to pierce her skin and squeeze out the venom, and finished her round.
