Chenxuan Xu (许宸轩) has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.44, set at Beijing Summer 2025, puts him in the top 8.3% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,218th in China. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since June 2024, he has put 34 official solves on the record across two events. His 2×2 best has come down from 4.32 in June 2024 to 2.44, a 44% improvement. Chenxuan has entered two competitions.

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.
