Ronnel Datlag has been competing for 17 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.09, set at United States Rubik's Cube Championships 2010, puts him in the top 5.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,134th in the United States. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since January 2010, he has put 148 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 9% around a typical one, steadier than 99% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.16 in January 2010 to 12.46, an 18% improvement. Ronnel 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.
