Everyone thought he would be the new great Chinese star back in 2010, when he won 1 gold, 3 silver and 2 bronze in the youth Olympics. Same year he won gold in the 50m freestyle, 100m freestyle and 4 × 200 m freestyle relay, and silver in the 4 × 100 m freestyle and medley relays, at the Pan Pacific Swimming Championships. He made it to the senior Australian swimming team at the age of 17 and won gold in the 100m medley, silver in the 200m medley and bronze in the 100m breaststroke. He then was badly injured, battled with that for several years. He continued making great progress untill 2014 where he suffered a severe back injury. After several back surgeries he came back in ~2017 and was considered one of the favourites to take medals at the 2020 Ol.
