Rodrigo Monge

3×3 · top 4.8% of 284,439 all-time · competing since July 2017 · 2017MONG04

Rodrigo Monge has been competing for 9 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 8.99, set at Trujillo Happy New Year 2020, puts him in the top 4.8% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 200th in Peru. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 8 competitions since July 2017, he has put 201 official solves on the record across five events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 15% around a typical one; 84% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 19.58 in July 2017 to 8.99, a 54% improvement. Rodrigo has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% 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.
