Nurmuhammad Karimov

3×3 one-handed · top 5.5% of 73,695 all-time · competing since November 2019 · 2019KARI07

Nurmuhammad Karimov has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 13.65, set at Tashkent Open 2022, puts him in the top 5.5% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5th in Uzbekistan. Until January 2010, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since November 2019, he has put 219 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, steadier than 95% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.55 in November 2019 to 9.37, a 57% improvement. Nurmuhammad has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
