Yuetong Zhu (朱玥曈)
Pyraminx · top 2.3% of 129,321 all-time · competing since December 2020 · 2020ZHUY01
Yuetong Zhu (朱玥曈) has been competing for 6 years. Her best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 2.55, set at Shenzhen Youth Open 2023, puts her in the top 2.3% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 277th in China. Until January 2011, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 16 competitions since December 2020, she has put 203 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 86% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Her 3×3 best has come down from 13.83 in December 2020 to 7.93, a 43% improvement. Yuetong has entered 16 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
