Steven Nguyen

3×3 · top 18.8% of 288,433 all-time · competing since April 2026 · 2026NGUY09

Steven Nguyen has been competing for 6 months. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 13.36, set at Klemzig Kubing Decathlon 2026, puts him in the top 18.8% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,721st in Australia. Across 3 competitions since April 2026, he has put 43 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 20.02 in April 2026 to 13.36, a 33% improvement. Steven has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
