Junze Lin (林君泽)
3×3 · top 3.9% of 284,439 all-time · competing since December 2019 · 2019LINJ12
Junze Lin (林君泽) has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.56, set at Tianjin Summer Solstice 2021, puts him in the top 3.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,460th in China. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since December 2019, he has put 55 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 38.19 in December 2019 to 8.56, a 78% improvement. Junze has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
