Tang Xuan Hao has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the Megaminx: a personal-best single of 48.81, set at Singapore Special 2023, puts him in the top 4.6% of the 34,786 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 25th in Singapore. Until October 2010, no official Megaminx solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since September 2019, he has put 77 official solves on the record across seven events. His 3×3 one-handed best has come down from 25.96 in September 2019 to 18.20, a 30% improvement. Tang has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
