Nguyễn Tấn Dũng

3×3 · top 5.1% of 284,439 all-time · competing since September 2020 · 2020DUNG01

Nguyễn Tấn Dũng has been competing for 6 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.10, set at Hanoi Summer 2025, puts him in the top 5.1% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 318th in Vietnam. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since September 2020, he has put 167 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, steadier than 73% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.43 in September 2020 to 9.10, a 41% improvement. He has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
