In 2022 she was selected for Hong Kong, China at the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou, entered in the women's team event and named among the nine women on the territory's registered list; the final line-up was built around experienced players such as Charmian Koo and Pearlie Chan, and Hong Kong took bronze in the women's team, the competitions having been staged in late September and early October 2023 at the Qi-Yuan (Zhili) Chess Hall. Bridge has been an Asian Games medal sport since Jakarta 2018 and rewards logical reasoning, memory and partnership understanding; the Hangzhou Games featured men's, women's and mixed team events, in all of which Hong Kong fielded players, and team events are contested by four to six players who develop long-term partnership agreements. The Hong Kong Contract Bridge Association runs the long-standing Inter-City Bridge Championships and other domestic events that give players across age groups a platform to compete. Public information on Hong Kong bridge players is limited, so details of Lu's sporting background, club affiliation and domestic record remain to be documented.
