Zhengjing Lin (林正璟)

2×2 · top 0.12% of 186,767 all-time · competing since March 2025 · 2025LINZ01

Zhengjing Lin (林正璟) has been competing for a year. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 0.70, set at Xianju NxN 2026, puts him in the top 0.12% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 17th in China. Until November 2011, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since March 2025, he has put 233 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 59% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 11.07 in March 2025 to 5.06, a 54% improvement. Zhengjing has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
