Initially paired with Jana Köhler, Ludwig won the U18 European Championship and later the U18 World Championship in Pattava Beach (Thailand).[1] After surviving a stroke which nearly ended her career,[1] she bounced back after changing to her current partner, Sara Goller. Together, Ludwig and Goller became 2006 German champions,[1] won the U23 European Championships in St. Pölten[1] and ended fourth in the women's European Championships the same year in Den Haag.[1] They continued their line of success in 2007, defending the German title and winning the Silver medal in the European Championships in Valencia.[1] Ludwig and Goller ended the 2007 season as leaders in the German women's ranking and are placed 7th overall.[1]
