Career The Austrian Ski Association named Egger their "Rookie of the Year" after her initial 2017–18 season.

Egger was again unable to earn any World Cup points in five starts in technical events to kick off the 2022–23 season, then spent the rest of that season and all of 2023–24 on the Europa Cup. On the lower tour she made the podium three times in speed events and finished the 2024 season second in the super-G standings and fourth in downhill and overall. She followed that up with a seventh-place finish in another downhill in St. Moritz the next day, and by earning points in each of the subsequent three speed races that December. Egger had been ranked sixth in the downhill standings and twentieth in super-G going in to the race, and Roland Assinger, the head coach of the Austrian women's team, considered her loss to be a significant setback for the team going into the Olympics.
