Đinh Hữu Phúc has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 4.88, set at Vietnam Championship 2025, puts him in the top 0.097% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5th in Vietnam. Until November 2016, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since July 2022, he has put 138 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 87% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 6.90 in July 2022 to 4.88, a 29% improvement. He has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
