Yize Dong (董一泽) has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 3.15, set at Guangzhou Grand Open 2026, puts him in the top 0.0021% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3rd in China. Until June 2023, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 44 competitions since December 2023, he has put 862 official solves on the record across four events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 11.98 in December 2023 to 3.15, a 74% improvement. Yize has entered 44 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
