Eng Zhong Ci has been competing for 3 years.

His 2×2 best has come down from 7.84 in September 2023 to 3.10, a 60% improvement. Eng has entered two 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.
