Rating

She is one of the highest rated female players in China. On Go Ratings, she was ranked amongst women #6 in [ext] Jan 2024, and in the top ten since at least 2017.

Despite her impressive rating, her tournament results are unexceptional, but her scores against other leading female players are respectable. In the 2023 Female Mingren, Lu was knocked out in the quarterfinals by Tang Yi (Women's #~20). She suffered the same fate in the 2023 Female Guoshou, at the hands of Zhou Hongyu. In the 2023 Jianqiao Cup, she was eliminated in the second round, by Wang Chenxing (Women's #~13). She didn’t qualify, or wasn’t chosen, for the international 2023 Wu Qingyuan Cup. She won the right to challenge Yu Zhiying for the 4th (newest) Women's Mingren, apparently the first time she had reached the finals of a major tournament, but lost 0–2.
