Onur Bak has been competing for 5 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.00, set at Rhode Island Winter 2024, puts him in the top 7.4% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 4,099th in the United States. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since August 2021, he has put 87 official solves on the record across four events.

Onur has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
