3×3 · top 3.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since August 2025 · 2025GAOY06

Yuxi Gao (高语汐) has been competing for a year. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.38, set at Beijing Autumn Begins 2026, puts her in the top 3.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,313th in China. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since August 2025, she has put 52 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 15.85 in August 2025 to 8.38, a 47% improvement. Yuxi has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
