He achieved a FINA B-standard of 2:19.10 from the National University Games in Taipei.[2] He challenged seven other swimmers in heat three, including Costa Rica's two-time Olympian Juan José Madrigal. He raced to a second seed in 2:19.30, trailing South Korea's Joe Kyong-Fan, winner of his heat, by 11-hundredths of a second. Li failed to advance into the semifinals, as he placed thirtieth overall in the prelims.[3][4]
