Zehao Huang (黄泽浩) has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.35, set at Rubik's WCA Asian Championship 2024, puts him in the top 3.4% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,280th in China. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since November 2019, he has put 129 official solves on the record across ten events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 11.90 in November 2019 to 8.35, a 30% improvement. Zehao has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
