Phil Yu (also known as a small kitten or variations thereof) is an Asian-American speedcuber from Plainsboro, New Jersey. Since 2010, he has been among the fastest one-handed cubers in the world, and the fastest to use the ZZ method (together with the VH system). Although he has posted several record-shattering home Ao5 videos at several points in the OH WR progression, he has never set an official world record.

Phil is currently an undergraduate at NYU. In 2011, he and fellow NYU student cuber James Chang opened an online cube store, The Cubicle.
