Haoyang Sun (孙昊阳)

3×3 · top 5.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since March 2024 · 2024SUNH02

Haoyang Sun (孙昊阳) has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.31, set at Xi'an Autumn 2025, puts him in the top 5.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,168th in China. Until February 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since March 2024, he has put 175 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 51% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 17.72 in March 2024 to 9.31, a 47% improvement. Haoyang has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
