Liu Xiang competes in the men's 110-meter hurdles final at the 16th Asian Games in Guangzhou, south China's Guangdong Province, on November 24. The 27-year-old former Olympic and world champion won his third Asian Games title in a row with a season best 13.09 seconds.

Liu withdrew from the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing before his first heat. He later received surgery on an Achilles' tendon in the United States.

The title-winning result in Guangzhou was Liu's best since he made a comeback in September 2009 following the surgery.
