Yifan Sun (孙一矾)
3×3 · top 7.4% of 284,439 all-time · competing since April 2024 · 2024SUNY02
Yifan Sun (孙一矾) has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.00, set at Xi'an Summer 2025, puts him in the top 7.4% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,912th in China. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since April 2024, he has put 20 official solves on the record across two events. His 3×3 best has come down from 13.47 in April 2024 to 10.00, a 26% improvement. Yifan has entered two 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.
