Davide Murciano has been competing for 14 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.21, set at Beneventum Open 2012, puts him in the top 5.4% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 203rd in Italy. Until February 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since July 2012, he has put 165 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 9% around a typical one, an early reading from 9 counted rounds. Davide has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
