Competing in Germany, the young Chinese jumper scored 112.3 points in her first jump, placing sixth after the opening round.

Zeng maintained her steady performance in the second jump, earning 114.8 points with a jump of 126.5 meters. With a combined total of 227.1 points, she secured sixth place in the overall standings.
