Yueyang Hu (胡越洋) has been competing for 5 years. His best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 5.15, set at Yancheng Open 2024, puts him in the top 4.8% of the 32,048 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 90th in China. Until April 2015, no official Clock solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since April 2021, he has put 92 official solves on the record across five events.

Yueyang has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
