Khaw Min Hoe
3×3 · top 0.59% of 288,433 all-time · competing since July 2024 · 2024HOEK02
Khaw Min Hoe has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 6.16, set at Seremban Cube Challenge 2026, puts him in the top 0.59% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 22nd in Malaysia. Until June 2011, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since July 2024, he has put 292 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 50% of the 36,406 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 8.37 in July 2024 to 6.16, a 26% improvement. Khaw 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.
