Kexin Chen (陈可欣) has been competing for 16 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.58, set at Shantou Open 2014, puts her in the top 6.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,445th in China. Until November 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since August 2010, she has put 34 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 13.59 in August 2010 to 9.58, a 30% improvement. Kexin has entered two 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.
