2×2 · top 6.7% of 189,179 all-time · competing since March 2023 · 2023HEIJ02
Juup Heijnen has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.25, set at Arnhem Open B 2024, puts him in the top 6.7% of the 189,179 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 144th in the Netherlands. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since March 2023, he has put 189 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one, an early reading from 9 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 19.17 in March 2023 to 9.82, a 49% improvement. Juup has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
