Goh Yu Ze (吴禹歵) has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.19, set at MyFamilyFest Speedcubing Challenge 2025, puts him in the top 3.1% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 158th in Malaysia. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 21 competitions since July 2022, he has put 600 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 61% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 1:01.04 in July 2022 to 8.19, an 87% improvement. Goh has entered 21 competitions, more competitions than 97% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
