Jacob Goossens Celis has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 0.77, set at Avenida Chile XXIX 2025, puts him in the top 0.2% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3rd in Colombia. Until November 2011, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 80 competitions since September 2023, he has put 3,791 official solves on the record across eleven events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 14.66 in September 2023 to 8.48, a 42% improvement. Jacob has entered 80 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
