Yuhuang Yang (杨宇煌)

2×2 · top 2.0% of 186,767 all-time · competing since March 2017 · 2017YANG16

Yuhuang Yang (杨宇煌) has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.47, set at Shenzhen Cubing 10th Anniversary 2019, puts him in the top 2.0% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 234th in China. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since March 2017, he has put 328 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 76% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Yuhuang has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
