Career
She represented Chinese Taipei in two editions of the Olympic Games (1996 and 2000), and later captured a bronze medal in the 4×200 m freestyle relay (8:1892) at the 1998 Asian Games in Bangkok, Thailand. Hsieh made her first Chinese Taipei team, as a 15-year-old teen, at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. At the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Hsieh drastically shortened her program on her second Olympic appearance, swimming only in the 100 m butterfly.
Swimming in heat two, she pulled away from the rest of the field by more than half a second (050) to a top seed, from start to finish, in a sterling time of 1:03.52.
Hsieh"s effortless triumph was not enough to put her through to the semifinals, as she placed forty-first overall on the first day of prelims.
