3×3 · top 4.0% of 284,439 all-time · competing since November 2019 · 2019ENRY01
Ryan Tan Yu En has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.63, set at Singapore AMK CC Cubing B 2023, puts him in the top 4.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 112th in Singapore. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since November 2019, he has put 45 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 11.93 in November 2019 to 8.63, a 28% improvement. Ryan has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
