During her competitive career Disl was a 19-year veteran of biathlon and was a five time olympian, with two Olympic gold medals from the 4 × 7.5 km relays in 1998 and 2002. She also has four silver medals (two in 7.5 km sprint (1998 and 2002), one in 4 × 7.5 km relay (1994), and one in 3 × 7.5 km relay (1992)), and three bronze medals (two in 15 km individual, 1994 and 1998, and one in 12.5 km mass start, 2006). She also has two World Championship individual titles, both won in Hochfilzen, Austria, in March 2005, in the 7.5 km sprint and the 10 km pursuit.

Dubbed "Turbo-Disl" by the German media, she lay second in the Biathlon World Cup table at the beginning of the Olympics behind fellow country-woman Kati Wilhelm, and finished fifth in the overall standings for the 2004/05 season. She has finished second overall three times in the Biathlon World Cup (1995/96, 1996/97 and 1997/98) and has won forty World Cup races (28 single and 12 relay/team victories). This includes three wins at the Holmenkollen ski festival biathlon competition with one in 1995 (sprint) and two in 1996 (sprint, pursuit).

2006 was Disl's last Olympics and her final season.

On 18 December 2005, Disl was named "German sportswoman of the year", becoming the first biathlete awarded, and beating speed skater Anni Friesinger and discus thrower Franka Dietzsch.

Since 2012 she resides with her Swedish boyfriend Tomas Söderberg in Sweden,[1] they have two children. Like many German Nordic skiers, Disl was working in the military as a border patrol guard during her sporting career.

[ru] Дизль, Уши

Урсула «Уши» Дизль (нем. Ursula „Uschi“ Disl; 15 ноября 1970 (1970-11-15), Бад-Тёльц, Бавария, ФРГ) —[2] немецкая биатлонистка, участница и медалистка пяти зимних Олимпиад. Двукратная олимпийская чемпионка, восьмикратная победительница чемпионатов мира, многократный олимпийский и мировой призёр. На трассе отличалась достаточно слабой, неуверенной стрельбой, но высокой скоростью на лыжне, за что получила от болельщиков спортивное прозвище «Турбо-Дизль» (нем. Turbo-Disl)[2]. По словам бывшего тренера сборной Германии Уве Мюссигганга, у спортсменки «при стрельбе отсутствует концентрация, и Дизль слишком подвижна и непоседлива»[3].
