Leong Keng Fai
3×3 · top 8.6% of 284,439 all-time · competing since November 2018 · 2018FAIL02
Leong Keng Fai has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.39, set at Malaysia Cube Championship 2019, puts him in the top 8.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 440th in Malaysia. Until February 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since November 2018, he has put 123 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 75% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 16.62 in November 2018 to 10.39, a 37% improvement. Leong has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
