Ivan Ang Zheng Hong

3×3 · top 9.1% of 284,439 all-time · competing since November 2025 · 2025HONG21

Ivan Ang Zheng Hong has been competing for 10 months. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.56, set at Kuala Lumpur Cubing Challenge 2026, puts him in the top 9.1% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 475th in Malaysia. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since November 2025, he has put 80 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 14.32 in November 2025 to 10.56, a 26% improvement. Ivan has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
