Ting-Han Lin (林廷翰)

3×3 · top 9.2% of 284,439 all-time · competing since May 2025 · 2025LINT04

Ting-Han Lin (林廷翰) has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.57, set at Shin Kong Cube Open - Taichung 2026, puts him in the top 9.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 549th in Chinese Taipei. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since May 2025, he has put 46 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 9% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 26.06 in May 2025 to 10.57, a 59% improvement. He has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
