Biathlon results

Switching to biathlon in 1992, Greiner-Petter-Memm earned a total of four individual World Cup career victories and had her best overall World cup finish of sixth in the 1993-94 season. At the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, she earned a silver medal in the 4 × 7.5 km relay despite blowing a noticeable lead during the standing phase of her leg. Greiner-Petter-Memm missed all five of her targets and missed with her three additional bullets, which results in five 150 m penalty loops afterwards.

She also earned gold medals at the Biathlon World Championships in the 4 × 7.5 km relay event (1995–1997, 1999).
