Örs Kováts has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.83, set at Hungarian Open 2017, puts him in the top 7.0% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 108th in Hungary. Until October 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since September 2015, he has put 106 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 51% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 34.35 in September 2015 to 9.83, a 71% improvement. He has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% 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.
