The daughter of Croatian decathlon record-holder Joško Vlašić, she was a talented junior athlete and attended her first Olympic Games in 2000 (Sydney, Australia) at the age of sixteen. She won the World Junior Championship in Athletics in both 2000 and 2002. Vlašić broke her national record in 2004 and also won her first world senior medal at the World Indoor Championships that same year. She spent the 2005 season recuperating from surgery when she was diagnosed with a hyperthyroid condition. She returned in 2006 and took the silver at the World Indoor Championship. Vlašić came back strong in 2007 when she won at the 2007 World Championships and went on to become the indoor world champion in 2008.

A slow healing process delayed her preparations for the London Olympics and she had to withdraw. Vlašić did not compete in any other event of the season. In 2014, Vlašić finished 6th at the World Indoor Championships.
