Tamerlan Bagdatov has been competing for 8 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.40, set at Economics Lyceum Cube 2019, puts him in the top 5.8% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 79th in Kazakhstan. Until February 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since September 2018, he has put 198 official solves on the record across eight events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 13.13 in September 2018 to 9.40, a 28% improvement. Tamerlan has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
