Sun made big improvement at the 2010 Asian Games. Here, Sun won gold medals in the 1500 freestyle, 4x200 freestyle relay, and silver medals in the 200 and 400 freestyle. On note, his 1500 freestyle time of 14:35.43 was a new Asian record and the second fastest time in history, only second to Grant Hackett. This led many to believe that Sun could break the world record in the event.
