Renshuo Zhang (张韧铄) has been competing for a year. Her best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 1.74, set at Taizhou Open 2025, puts her in the top 0.73% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 82nd in China. Until April 2012, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 13 competitions since May 2025, she has put 273 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 92% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Her Pyraminx best has come down from 3.09 in May 2025 to 1.74, a 44% improvement. Renshuo has entered 13 competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
