Career
[edit]Zhu began his career with success at the U18 level. After placing runner-up at the 2017 Chinese U18 Championships, he first represented China at the 2017 World U18 Championships in Athletics, finishing 6th in his 110 m hurdles heat and failing to advance to the semifinals.[1] At the 2017 Asian Indoor Games later that year, Zhu finished 6th in his 60 metres hurdles semifinal and again did not advance.[1]
Zhu achieved modest national results over the next few years, and in 2020 he joined a team of Chinese nationals to compete in several American collegiate indoor track meets, finishing runner-up at the 2020 Don Kirby Elite Invitational.[3][1]
He would not represent China internationally again until 2023, qualifying for the World Championships 110 m hurdles by virtue of his Chinese Athletics Championships title that year. At the championships, he finished 32nd overall. He ended his 2023 season at the Asian Games, advancing to the final and finishing 6th.[1]
At the 2024 World Indoor Championships, Zhu advanced past the first round but was disqualified in his semifinal for a false start.[4]
Personal life
[edit]Zhu is from Hubei, China. He is coached by Xie Jiming, who once said of Zhu in Chinese, "Zhu Shenglong is a lightweight athlete, and currently his waist The abdominal strength is weak and not thick, so if we want to make a breakthrough in the Olympics next year, we must focus on strengthening this winter training."[2]
Zhu and the other Chinese hurdlers have maintained a rivalry with the Japanese athletics team, and Zhu has been contrasted with Shunsuke Izumiya.[2]
