Jingzhe Yan (严敬哲) has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 12.09, set at Shaoxing Open 2019, puts him in the top 14.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5,601st in China. Across 5 competitions since November 2018, he has put 78 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs.

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.
