Liu is considered the second-fastest Chinese skater, behind Wang Meng. In the 2008 ISU world championships, Liu won the silver medal in lady's 500 meter final, and has been a key contributor to China's successful relay efforts.

China's relay team won the last three competitions of the season, and Liu was a member of each of those squads.
