Shujie Yang (杨舒杰)

2×2 · top 7.7% of 186,767 all-time · competing since December 2017 · 2017YANS02

Shujie Yang (杨舒杰) has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.37, set at Mudanjiang Open 2018, puts him in the top 7.7% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,107th in China. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since December 2017, he has put 59 official solves on the record across three events. His 2×2 best has come down from 4.00 in December 2017 to 2.37, a 41% improvement. Shujie has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% of everyone who has ever competed.

The story so far

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.
