Eighth seed Li recovered from going behind 0-5 in the opening set to rally for a convincing 7-6 (7/3), 6-3 victory in 1hr 30min.
It was Li's second victory in six encounters with US Open champion Clijsters. "Every time I see the name of the past champions every year, I think about when my name will be there. And when you to the centre court, you can see many pictures, so next year I will see my picture there as well. It feels great."
