3×3 · top 7.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since November 2024 · 2024JOSH10
Ng Ming Wei Joshua has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.85, set at Singapore Championship 2026, puts him in the top 7.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 189th in Singapore. Until October 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since November 2024, he has put 44 official solves on the record across four events. His 3×3 best has come down from 13.47 in November 2024 to 9.85, a 27% improvement. Ng has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
