Tamim Amjad Abbas has been competing for 6 months. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.65, set at Jordan Nationals 2026, puts him in the top 6.6% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 17th in Jordan. Until November 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 2 competitions since April 2026, he has put 32 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 10% around a typical one, an early reading from 5 counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 15.40 in April 2026 to 9.65, a 37% improvement. Tamim has entered two 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.
