Junlong Li (李俊龙) has been competing for 15 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 11.22, set at Hong Kong Side Event Day 2017, puts him in the top 2.1% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 177th in China. Until August 2010, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 25 competitions since July 2011, he has put 630 official solves on the record across eleven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 55% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 one-handed best has come down from 17.83 in October 2013 to 11.22, a 37% improvement. Junlong has entered 25 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.
