Ng Jian Je (方健泽) has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the Square-1: a personal-best single of 8.67, set at Malaysian Cube Championship 2017, puts him in the top 4.0% of the 25,272 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 16th in Malaysia. Until October 2010, no official Square-1 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 16 competitions since July 2014, he has put 190 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, an early reading from 9 counted rounds. His Square-1 best has come down from 13.85 in December 2015 to 8.67, a 37% improvement. Ng has entered 16 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
