Jing Jia (贾婧) has been competing for 10 years. Her best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.57, set at Xi'an Open 2018, puts her in the top 5.8% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 684th in China. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 26 competitions since May 2016, she has put 451 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 56% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Her 3×3 best has come down from 29.67 in May 2016 to 12.16, a 59% improvement. Jing has entered 26 competitions, more competitions than 98% 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.
