2×2 · top 14.1% of 186,767 all-time · competing since January 2017 · 2017TANG01

Haoqin Tang (唐浩钦) has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.99, set at Hefei Open 2017, puts him in the top 14.1% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,207th in China. Across 7 competitions since January 2017, he has put 159 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 90% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 23.01 in January 2017 to 13.08, a 43% improvement. Haoqin has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
