At both the 2010 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships, in Rotterdam, and 2010 Asian Games, in Guangzhou, Zhang won gold with the Chinese Team, and was able to also win gold at the horizontal bar, in both international events, and gold at the floor exercise. Zou Kai, the Olympic and World Champion in these events was left out of the team that year.
