Cécile Baudin

2×2 · top 5.1% of 186,767 all-time · competing since October 2015 · 2015BAUD01

Cécile Baudin has been competing for 11 years. Her best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.05, set at Nancy Open 2016, puts her in the top 5.1% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 219th in France. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since October 2015, she has put 91 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, an early reading from 8 counted rounds. Her 2×2 best has come down from 5.11 in October 2015 to 2.05, a 60% improvement. She has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% of everyone who has ever competed.

The story so far

Competitions

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.
