She is the skip (captain) of the Swiss Olympic Curling Team.

She has participated in several Olympic Games contests and has won numerous awards in many other curling events worldwide.

At the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Games, her team finished a disappointing fourth place, as Ott's touch completely deserted her late in the semi-final and bronze medal matches.

Ott won the 2012 Ford World Women's Curling Championship after defeating Sweden's Margaretha Sigfridsson in the final.

Switzerland were beaten 6-5 by Great Britain in the Bronze Medal match.
