Samuel Jennings has been competing for 7 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 15.74, set at Perth Winter 2025, puts him in the top 26.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,473rd in Australia. Across 17 competitions since January 2020, he has put 156 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 59% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 21 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 21.86 in January 2020 to 15.74, a 28% improvement. Samuel has entered 17 competitions, more competitions than 96% 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.
