Zichuan Xu (徐子川)
3×3 · top 17.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since July 2015 · 2015XUZI01
Zichuan Xu (徐子川) has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 13.04, set at Shenzhen Open 2017, puts him in the top 17.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 6,872nd in China. Across 3 competitions since July 2015, he has put 25 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 9% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 17.45 in July 2015 to 13.04, a 25% improvement. Zichuan has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
