In 2023, Kolar was provisionally suspended from tennis competitions by the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) on corruption charges,[1] and then later that year she was banned for life from professional tennis and fined $175,000 after the ITIA found her guilty of 25 match fixing offenses.[2]

In July 2009 Kolar played in her first WTA Tour tournament, the Slovenia Open in Portorož, where she lost to Roberta Vinci in the first round. In 2010, she won a $10k tournament in Croatia, her first title on the ITF Women's Circuit. In May 2011, Kolar won her second title at a $25k event in Maribor, Slovenia.
