Austin Eng
3×3 · top 1.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since December 2016 · 2016ENGA01
Austin Eng has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.19, set at Pickering Favourites Fall 2025, puts him in the top 1.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 156th in Canada. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 20 competitions since December 2016, he has put 311 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 84% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.13 in December 2016 to 7.19, a 66% improvement. Austin has entered 20 competitions, more competitions than 97% 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.
