Alexander Ong
3×3 · top 0.13% of 284,439 all-time · competing since June 2025 · 2025ONGA01
Alexander Ong has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 5.06, set at Singapore Skewby March 2026, puts him in the top 0.13% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5th in Singapore. Until November 2015, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since June 2025, he has put 232 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 88% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 9.43 in June 2025 to 5.06, a 46% improvement. Alexander has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
