Career
In July 2026, during the 2026 ISSF World Cup in Hangzhou, Du won her first career ISSF World Cup gold medal in the 10 m air rifle event with a score of 254.6 points.
In September 2026, she competed at the 2026 Asian Games and won a gold medal in the 10 metre air rifle team event, along with Wang Zifei and Han Jiayu. The team finished with a world record and Asian Games record score of 1904.2. At 16 years old, she became the youngest Chinese shooter to win an Asian Games championship. She also competed in the 10 metre air rifle competition and finished in sixth place during qualification. However, she did not advance to the final due to the Asian Games shooting regulations limiting a maximum of two athletes per National Olympic Committee (NOC). Her teammates, Wang and Han, already claimed China's two final spots.
In November 2026, she competed at the 2026 ISSF World Shooting Championships and won a gold medal in the 10 metre air rifle team event.
