3×3 · top 7.9% of 284,439 all-time · competing since May 2021 · 2021LIYU05

Yuqi Li (李雨琪) has been competing for 5 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.15, set at Kunshan Open 2024, puts her in the top 7.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,085th in China. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since May 2021, she has put 43 official solves on the record across three events. Her 3×3 best has come down from 19.87 in May 2021 to 10.15, a 49% improvement. Yuqi has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
