Between 1973 and 1975 she won seven gold and two silver medals in the 100 m and 200 m butterfly and 4 × 100 m medley relay at the world and European championships.[3] She also set eleven world records:

• three in the 100 m butterfly (1974),
• five in the 200 m butterfly (1973, 1976),
• two in the 4 × 100 m medley relay (1973, 1974) and
• one in the 4 × 100 m freestyle relay (1976).

In 1986, she was inducted to the International Swimming Hall of Fame.[4]

After being inducted into the International Swimming Hall of Fame, team officials confessed to administering performance enhancing drugs to this swimmer, who therefore obtained an illegal and unfair advantage over other athletes.[5]

She retired from competitions in 1976 and studied physiotherapy. In 1990 she founded her own company Praxis Gabriel in Berlin, which in 2000 was joined by her daughter Linda (born ca. 1981).[1]
