Yuhui Xu (许宇辉) has been competing for 19 years. His best event is the 3×3 blindfolded: a personal-best single of 30.43, set at Guangzhou SCAU 2012, puts him in the top 4.2% of the 12,178 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 73rd in China. Until February 2012, no official 3×3 blindfolded solve in the world had been that fast. Across 30 competitions since October 2007, he has put 102 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 9% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. His 3×3 blindfolded best has come down from 2:34.02 in October 2008 to 30.43, an 80% improvement. Yuhui has entered 30 competitions, more competitions than 98% 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.
