Cheng Zai Yang Ryan

3×3 one-handed · top 6.0% of 73,695 all-time · competing since November 2019 · 2019RYAN05

Cheng Zai Yang Ryan has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 13.93, set at Singapore Mini 2022, puts him in the top 6.0% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 50th in Singapore. Until September 2009, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since November 2019, he has put 50 official solves on the record across four events. His 3×3 one-handed best has come down from 15.75 in June 2022 to 13.93, a 12% improvement. Cheng has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
