Xiaoxia Wei (韦晓夏)

3×3 · top 7.1% of 284,439 all-time · competing since October 2019 · 2019WEIX01

Xiaoxia Wei (韦晓夏) has been competing for 7 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.89, set at Zibo Open 2024, puts her in the top 7.1% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,782nd in China. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since October 2019, she has put 95 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 78% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Her 3×3 best has come down from 18.12 in October 2019 to 9.89, a 45% improvement. Xiaoxia has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
