In her last race she suffered an injury and during her rehabilitation contemplated retiring. Finally, in February 2020, after 18 years in the World Cup, she announced her retirement. It has been stated that Drev, a talented skier, would've achieved much more than two podiums in the World Cup if she hadn't been impeded by a series of injuries and health problems and problems within the Slovenian national team. Drev expressed regret at not having lived up to her potentiality, stating that she was especially disappointed with her results at the
2018 Winter Olympics in Pyongyang, where she felt she could get a medal. ==World Cup results==
