Jie Yu (余杰)
3×3 one-handed · top 8.3% of 73,695 all-time · competing since March 2012 · 2012YUJI01
Jie Yu (余杰) has been competing for 14 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 15.11, set at AnHui University Open 2015, puts him in the top 8.3% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 801st in China. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since March 2012, he has put 287 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 50% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Jie has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
