Her first year in biathlon was 1999 and made her World Cup debut in 2008. Eckhoff took part in her first ever Olympic Games in 2014 in Sochi. Although such an event was her premiere, she won 3 medals - one gold with the mixed relay alongside Tora Berger, Ole Einar Bjørndalen and Emil Hegle Svendsen; and 2 bronze in the mass start and the relay. In the other races, Tiril finished 18th in the Individual and the sprint and 24th in the pursuit.

During the 2015 World Championships in Kontiolahti, Tiril won a bronze medal with the mixed relay. She finished 8th in the overall with 598 points. The 2015-2016 season was hard. Her shooting was unstable and her skiing was not in a top form. However, at the World Championships held in Holmenkollen, Eckhoff won the gold medal in the 7.5 km sprint. She demonstrated incredible class and proved that training and hard work paid off. After this remarkable success, Tiril ran with the Norwegian women's relay team that won the gold.
