Jack Williams has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.16, set at Ajax 3x3x3 Newcomers A 2024, puts him in the top 1.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 151st in Canada. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 14 competitions since November 2023, he has put 314 official solves on the record across six events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 73% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 11.74 in November 2023 to 7.16, a 39% improvement. Jack has entered 14 competitions, more competitions than 95% 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.
