Sihan Jiao (焦思涵) has been competing for 16 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.86, set at Zibo Open 2017, puts him in the top 4.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,735th in China. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 18 competitions since August 2010, he has put 518 official solves on the record across four events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 14.80 in August 2010 to 8.86, a 40% improvement. Sihan has entered 18 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
