Weiheng Lin (林炜衡) has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.10, set at Shenzhen Open 2024, puts him in the top 3.0% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,106th in China. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since May 2019, he has put 107 official solves on the record across five events.

Weiheng 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.
