Yuwen Su (苏裕文)

4×4 · top 2.6% of 83,917 all-time · competing since August 2018 · 2018SUYU04

Yuwen Su (苏裕文) has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 4×4: a personal-best single of 29.51, set at Zhengzhou Zeal 2025, puts him in the top 2.6% of the 83,917 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 249th in China. Until April 2012, no official 4×4 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since August 2018, he has put 167 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 6% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 2×2 best has come down from 7.22 in August 2018 to 2.37, a 67% improvement. Yuwen has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
