3×3 · top 6.7% of 288,433 all-time · competing since October 2025 · 2025XIAT01
Tianyi Xia (夏天翼) has been competing for a year. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.72, set at Beijing Only 3x3 2025, puts her in the top 6.7% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,660th in China. Until November 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since October 2025, she has put 59 official solves on the record across one event. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 81% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Her 3×3 best has come down from 12.95 in October 2025 to 9.72, a 25% improvement. Tianyi has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
