SEATTLE: Three Malaysian speedcubers did the nation proud at the Rubik’s WCA World Championship 2025, held in Seattle, United States.

The world’s top cube solvers from 74 countries competed in one of the largest events of its kind.

Lim Hung, Marc Tang Kye Peng and Ephraim Lim Shao Liang represented Malaysia with distinction, standing out among more than 1,800 participants at the prestigious global championship.

Lim Hung clinched a bronze medal in the 7x7x7 event, recording an impressive time of 1 minute 48.59 seconds — a performance that not only earned him a place on the podium but also reinforced Malaysia’s growing stature in the international speedcubing scene.

The gold medal in the 7x7x7 category went to American cubing sensation Max Park, who completed the event in a winning time of 1 minute 43.23 seconds.
