Nguyễn Quang Sáng has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the Skewb: a personal-best single of 2.42, set at Arena HCMC Spring 2026, puts him in the top 2.6% of the 73,281 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 16th in Vietnam. Until February 2014, no official Skewb solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since July 2022, he has put 114 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 11.66 in July 2022 to 8.56, a 27% improvement. He has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
