Giuseppe Amato has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 4.74, set at Liberty Science Center Open A 2026, puts him in the top 0.072% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 46th in the United States. Until November 2016, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 17 competitions since November 2019, he has put 395 official solves on the record across four events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 27.54 in November 2019 to 4.74, an 83% improvement. Giuseppe has entered 17 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
