Adam Lyne has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.39, set at Ajax First-Timers 2022, puts him in the top 7.9% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 513th in Canada. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 17 competitions since August 2022, he has put 333 official solves on the record across seven events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 15.18 in August 2022 to 12.56, a 17% improvement. Adam has entered 17 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
