Anjie Zhao (赵安洁) has been competing for 8 years. Her best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.52, set at French Championship 2026, puts her in the top 5.5% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 659th in China. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 30 competitions since July 2018, she has put 768 official solves on the record across 13 events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 76% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Her Pyraminx best has come down from 7.51 in July 2018 to 3.52, a 53% improvement. Anjie has entered 30 competitions, more competitions than 98% of everyone who has ever competed.

The story so far

Competitions

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
