Cherie Chan (陳卓怡) has been competing for 3 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.50, set at Odd Day in Hong Kong 2026, puts her in the top 6.1% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 161st in Hong Kong, China. Until February 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since May 2023, she has put 134 official solves on the record across four events.

Her 3×3 best has come down from 11.10 in May 2023 to 9.50, a 14% improvement. Cherie has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% of everyone who has ever competed.

The story so far

Competitions

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.
