Junxiang Hong (洪骏翔)
3×3 one-handed · top 2.9% of 73,695 all-time · competing since May 2016 · 2016HONG07
Junxiang Hong (洪骏翔) has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 11.94, set at Xiamen Open 2018, puts him in the top 2.9% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 251st in China. Until August 2010, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since May 2016, he has put 384 official solves on the record across twelve events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 66% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 5 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.21 in May 2016 to 10.66, a 13% improvement. Junxiang has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
