In 1970, she set a national record on the 1000 m and in 1971, she became national sprint champion. The next year, 1972, was her best year; she first became national allround champion, then, one month later, she won gold on the 1000 m at the 1972 Winter Olympics of Sapporo, and two weeks after that, she became world sprint champion.After getting married, Pflug started competing as Monika Holzner-Pflug in the 1974–75 season.

From then on, she competed as Monika Gawenus-Pflug.Pflug would compete in a total of five Winter Olympics between 1972 and 1988, but did not win any more Olympic medals.

Pflug ended her speed-skating career abruptly in 1988 after a new personal and national record on the 500 m in an otherwise disappointing season.
