Javelin thrower Liu's personal best of 66.47m was set in 2017 as a then-Asian record. After bagging numerous junior titles at the world and continental levels, Liu made the grade as a senior by winning gold at the 2015 Asian championships. An eighth-place finish at the 2017 worlds in London bodes well for the future.
