Nguyễn Lê Gia Tuệ

3×3 one-handed · top 4.2% of 73,695 all-time · competing since August 2017 · 2017TUEN01

Nguyễn Lê Gia Tuệ has been competing for 9 years. Her best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 12.85, set at Ho Chi Minh Open 2022, puts her in the top 4.2% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 65th in Vietnam. Until January 2010, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since August 2017, she has put 98 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 58% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 19.74 in August 2017 to 8.80, a 55% improvement. She has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
