Zimo Yang (杨紫茉) has been competing for 7 years. Her best event is the Pyraminx: a personal-best single of 3.55, set at Xuzhou Open 2024, puts her in the top 5.7% of the 129,321 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 670th in China. Until February 2008, no official Pyraminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since November 2019, she has put 67 official solves on the record across four events. Her 3×3 best has come down from 36.79 in November 2019 to 10.29, a 72% improvement. Zimo has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
