Born in
Miercurea Ciuc,
Romania, into an ethnic
Hungarian family, Miklós began skiing at age five. By the age of 12, she participated in World Cup races for children, and made her World Cup debut in December 2005 at age 17. She got injured just before the
2006 Winter Olympics thus she had to miss the Games, while in Vancouver in
2010 she fell in the
downhill and suffered injuries that kept her away from skiing for three months. The following year, Miklós finished 18th in both the
downhill and
super-G at the
2009 World Championships in
Val d'Isère. She achieved her best World Cup result a few weeks later, 26th in a super-G at
St. Moritz. Until 2010, Miklós competed for Romania, but after she obtained the Hungarian citizenship and the relation between her and the Romanian Ski Federation broke down, she opted to race for Hungary. The Romanians did not want to let her go, but pursuant to the rules of the
International Ski Federation (FIS), if a skier changes her citizenship according to her nationality, it is the sole discretion of the FIS to decide whether they give the race permit or not. The Hungarian Ski Association started to lobby to allow Miklós to compete for Hungary, which resulted the FIS finally giving its permission on 17 January 2011. By changing nationalities, Miklós lost all her FIS points prior to the
2011 World Championships in
Germany. In order to compete in those championships, she ran more races in Austria, Germany, and France to collect enough points to secure a spot, and 31st in
super-G. At the
2013 World Championships in Austria, she finished 19th in the
super combined and 23rd in the
downhill. Fact is, FRSB never really understood its role and scope and constantly faulted her competing career. In her first
Winter Olympics for
Hungary in
2014, Miklós finished 16th in the
super combined and 7th in the
downhill, achieving the country's best result in any Olympic alpine race, beating all skiers from
Austria, the most successful nation in
alpine skiing at the Olympics. The result also made her the top Hungarian sportswoman at the Games. She set a new personal best in World Cup competition with a fifth place in a downhill at
Crans-Montana in
2014. She gained her first World Cup podium, also Hungary's first, with a third-place finish in a downhill at
St. Moritz in January
2015. ==World Cup results==
