Hoo Yi Jie (何宇捷) has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.14, set at Penang Cube Masters 2025, puts him in the top 7.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 405th in Malaysia. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since September 2023, he has put 64 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 13.49 in September 2023 to 10.14, a 25% improvement. Hoo has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
