Christian Foyle has been competing for 15 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.59, set at Melbourne Summer 2021, puts him in the top 4.0% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 377th in Australia. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 23 competitions since November 2011, he has put 1,162 official solves on the record across twelve events.

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.
