Yeseong Yang has been competing for 3 years.

Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since April 2023, he has put 44 official solves on the record across four events. His 3×3 best has come down from 17.51 in April 2023 to 10.21, a 42% improvement. Yeseong has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
