Guanyu Liu (刘冠宇) has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.65, set at Fuzhou Spring 2019, puts him in the top 6.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,517th in China. Until November 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since March 2019, he has put 49 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 9% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. Guanyu has entered two 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.
