Career
[edit]Mali competes for the club TSK Jub Dob Pri Ljubljani and has been part of the Slovenian national biathlon team since 2000. The instructor in the army of Kamnik made her Biathlon World Cup debut in 2001. She was selected for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, where she placed 27th in sprint and 32nd in the pursuit race.[1] She reached the top 10 in the 2002–03 season, placing 8th in sprints in Pokljuka and in Oslo at Holmenkollen. Her best result was a 4th place in the mass start race in Antholz, which remains her best international placing.
Mali's top result in the Biathlon World Championships was 14th place in the sprint at the Biathlon World Championships 2004 in Oberhof, where she placed 14th in singles and 18th in the mass start was.

Mali originally competed in cross-country skiing, and for a time competed in both sports simultaneously. In that sport, she made her World Cup race debut in 1995, and was particularly successful in the sprint events, with her first World Cup top-10 placing in Milan in 1997. In December 1998 she managed three podium places in the sprint events, in Milan and Kitzbühel she came in second.
