Nguyen Dao Quoc Anh has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 3×3 blindfolded: a personal-best single of 33.51, set at Ota Blind Summer 2023, puts him in the top 5.1% of the 12,178 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 7th in Vietnam. Until February 2010, no official 3×3 blindfolded solve in the world had been that fast. Across 16 competitions since March 2016, he has put 210 official solves on the record across 16 events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 17.21 in March 2016 to 9.33, a 46% improvement. Nguyen 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.
