Qianyu Wang (王骞羽) has been competing for 5 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 6.97, set at Beijing Autumn Begins 2026, puts him in the top 1.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 456th in China. Until November 2010, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since April 2021, he has put 152 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 17% around a typical one; 95% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 18.80 in April 2021 to 6.97, a 63% improvement. Qianyu has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.
