Eva Háková, a married sports teacher from Horní Branná , has been running biathlon since 1988 and started for the SKP Jymbolx . She achieved her first success under her maiden name Burešová starting at the 1989 World Championships in Feistritz an der Drau , where she won the bronze medal with the relay alongside Renata Novotná and Jiřina Adamičková . With the team to which Jana Kulhavá still belonged, she finished seventh. Since the beginning of the 1990s, she has been among the world's top biathlons for Czechoslovakia. She won the bronze medal behind the teams from Germany and the CIS together with Gabriela Suvová , Jana Kulhavá and Jiřina Adamičková at the 1992 Biathlon World Championships , where the non-Olympic team competition was held . The 1992/93 season also got off to a successful start. In the first race of the season she achieved her best result in the World Cup with second place behind Anne Briand in a single in Pokljuka . Three more results followed in the top ten. A little later, she took part in the Biathlon World Championships in Borovets in 1993 and finished sixth in the individual, 48th in the sprint and with Kulhavá, Adamičková and Petra Nosková 12th place in the team competition. The greatest success of the career she achieved in the relay race, in which Háková won the gold medal on the side of Kulhavá, Adamičková and Iveta Knížková . In the overall ranking of the World Cup, she finished eleventh. In Lillehammer , the Czech first took part in the Winter Olympics in 1994 and was 35th of the individual, ninth in the sprint race and was seventh in the relay race with Kulhavá, Pelcová (previously Adamičková) and Knížková.

The next major event was the 1995 biathlon world championships in Antholz . Háková competed in three races and was 23rd in the individual, ninth in the sprint and 12th in the relay race. In the World Cup she reached 22nd place overall, after she was 21st in the previous season as well as in the following season. The 1996 World Championships in Ruhpolding brought 47th place in the individual, 16th in the sprint and seventh place with both the Czech relay and the team.
