Trần Nhật Minh
3×3 one-handed · top 3.0% of 73,695 all-time · competing since September 2025 · 2025MINH06
Trần Nhật Minh has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 12.01, set at Vietnam Championship 2026, puts him in the top 3.0% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 47th in Vietnam. Until January 2010, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since September 2025, he has put 73 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 12% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 10.00 in September 2025 to 8.86, an 11% improvement. He has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
