Jordan Carswell has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 6.91, set at Rubik's WCA World Championship 2025, puts him in the top 1.2% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 136th in Australia. Until November 2010, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 30 competitions since April 2022, he has put 1,466 official solves on the record across 14 events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 23.56 in April 2022 to 6.91, a 71% improvement. Jordan has entered 30 competitions, more competitions than 98% 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.
