Lê Bảo Châu

3×3 · top 9.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since July 2022 · 2022CHAU09

Lê Bảo Châu has been competing for 4 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.50, set at Ho Chi Minh Spring 2024, puts her in the top 9.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 555th in Vietnam. Until August 2006, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since July 2022, she has put 42 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside her 2 DNFs. Her 3×3 best has come down from 12.20 in July 2022 to 10.50, a 14% improvement. She 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.
