Last weekend, XuanYi Geng From China achieved an average of 4.32 seconds which is incredible, especially considering he is even younger than YiHeng Wang! The cube just looks way too big for his hands but yet he is turning above 10 turns per second a lot of the time. There are some rumours that there may have been some dodgy timer stops so I will leave that up to the WCA committee to investigate.
XuanYi Geng is known for an incredible ability to plan really far into the solve, he is known to regularly plan out 3 pairs, and quite often the entire F2L, he also had a 3.94 best possible average going into the last solve, this essentially proves that sub-4 could happen anytime now given the right scrambles and the right circumstances for either XuanYi or YiHeng.
Unlike YiHeng, XuanYi is sticking with Gan and is still using a Gan 12, he also used ZBLL for every single solve and his movecounts were very low compared to most solvers.
