Madhur Jain has been competing for 14 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 27.43, set at DJ Open 2014, puts him in the top 57.7% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 8,955th in India. Across 7 competitions since October 2012, he has put 37 official solves on the record across two events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 24% around a typical one, an early reading from 6 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 36.02 in October 2012 to 27.43, a 24% improvement. Madhur has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
