Then she lost to Sara Eriksson from Sweden and Lene Aanes from Norway and slipped to 4th place.

At the 2003 World Cup in New York , Xu Haiyan was even less lucky.

She won over Badrachyn Odontschimeg from Mongolia , but then lost to Martine Dugrenier from Canada just on points (1: 2 rounds, 4: 4 points). Since Martine Dugrenier only finished 5th, she did not make it into the consolation round and only came in 9th place in the final accounts.

After that, for the next three years she only competed in the 2010 Military World Cup in Lahti / Finland , where she won the weight class up to 63 kg, ahead of Monika Ewa Michalik from Poland and Stefanie Stüber from Germany .
