After four months of joining the team, she took part in the Li Ning's Cup, a National Children's Gymnastics Competition in May 2001.

Pang has competed at multiple World Cup events in the past, but her best overall performance up until that point was at the 2006 Foshan Chinese National Championships where she won the all-around and floor exercise titles.

Pang was also called up for bars, on which she did exceptionally well, in last minute when Li Ya messed up her routine in the warm-up session.

She performed a double-twisting Yurchenko, but landed low, took a step, and placed her hands on the mat, and got a 0.8 deduction.

On Uneven Bars, she has made some improvement with her lines and execution, being careful not to bend her arms on swings.
