Alexandre Glock has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.50, set at Charantonnay Cube Clash 2024, puts him in the top 8.9% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 340th in France. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since October 2022, he has put 158 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 18.46 in October 2022 to 12.73, a 31% improvement. Alexandre has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
