Yifan Yin (阴一凡) has been competing for 10 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 12.48, set at Ningxia Open 2018, puts her in the top 15.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 6,110th in China. Across 4 competitions since November 2016, she has put 44 official solves on the record across three events.

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.
