Alejandro Fernández López
3×3 · top 3.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since July 2023 · 2023LOPE49
Alejandro Fernández López has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.37, set at NxN Tormes Open 2023, puts him in the top 3.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 144th in Spain. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since July 2023, he has put 297 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 67% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 6 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 9.38 in July 2023 to 8.37, an 11% improvement. Alejandro 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.
