Yue Yu (于悦) has been competing for a year. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.87, set at Wuhu Open 2026, puts her in the top 7.1% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,756th in China. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since March 2025, she has put 35 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 12.57 in March 2025 to 9.87, a 21% improvement. Yue has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
