Osian Rhys Morris Williams
3×3 · top 8.4% of 284,439 all-time · competing since June 2022 · 2022WILL24
Osian Rhys Morris Williams has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.31, set at Wiltshire Summer 2026, puts him in the top 8.4% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 607th in the United Kingdom. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 7 competitions since June 2022, he has put 216 official solves on the record across nine events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one; 61% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 5 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.89 in June 2022 to 10.31, a 53% improvement. Osian has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
