Theo Schwartz has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 11.14, set at Agoura Side Events Day 2025, puts him in the top 10.9% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 5,909th in the United States. Across 7 competitions since August 2024, he has put 101 official solves on the record across three 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 4 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 13.34 in August 2024 to 11.14, a 16% improvement. Theo has entered seven competitions, more competitions than 88% 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.
