Conor Sheridan has been competing for 15 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.52, set at Every Event Éire 2019, puts him in the top 2.2% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 44th in Ireland. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 23 competitions since February 2012, he has put 1,196 official solves on the record across twelve events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 1:06.65 in February 2012 to 10.70, an 84% improvement. Conor has entered 23 competitions, more competitions than 97% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
