Yuchen Zhang (张雨晨) has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 11.41, set at Beijing Summer 2018, puts him in the top 11.8% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 4,660th in China. Across 9 competitions since June 2017, he has put 134 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 51% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 9 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 17.05 in June 2017 to 11.41, a 33% improvement. Yuchen 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.
