Xinrui Lin (林鑫睿) has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.69, set at Nanchang Open 2019, puts him in the top 6.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,563rd in China.

His 3×3 best has come down from 13.56 in April 2018 to 9.69, a 29% improvement. Xinrui has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
