Thibaut Jacquinot has been competing for 20 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.86, set at Spanish Open 2007, puts him in the top 7.1% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 379th in France. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 22 competitions since April 2006, he has put 645 official solves on the record across six events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 12.25 in April 2006 to 9.86, a 20% improvement. Thibaut has entered 22 competitions, more competitions than 97% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
