Tongxin Wu (武童昕) has been competing for 10 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.01, set at Shijiazhuang Winter 2018, puts her in the top 4.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,855th in China. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since October 2016, she has put 176 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 72% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Her 3×3 best has come down from 17.23 in October 2016 to 9.01, a 48% improvement. Tongxin has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% 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.
