3×3 · top 1.3% of 288,433 all-time · competing since April 2024 · 2024WANG59
Yitong Wang (王一桐) has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 6.95, set at Shenyang Cubing League 3x3 I 2026, puts him in the top 1.3% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 461st in China. Until November 2010, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since April 2024, he has put 146 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 65% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 12.83 in April 2024 to 6.95, a 46% improvement. Yitong has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
