Yuxuan Zhang (张雨萱)

3×3 · top 9.3% of 284,439 all-time · competing since January 2025 · 2025ZHAN08

Yuxuan Zhang (张雨萱) has been competing for a year. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.61, set at Beijing Autumn Begins 2026, puts her in the top 9.3% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,640th in China. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since January 2025, she has put 70 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 7% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 19.80 in January 2025 to 10.61, a 46% improvement. Yuxuan 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.
