Naomi Solnick has been competing for a year. Her best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 3.22, set at Davis Summer 2025, puts her in the top 1.1% of the 32,048 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 105th in the United States. Until May 2021, no official Clock solve in the world had been that fast. Across 31 competitions since October 2024, she has put 650 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 88% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. Her 3×3 best has come down from 8.44 in October 2024 to 6.87, a 19% improvement. Naomi has entered 31 competitions, more competitions than 98% 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.
