Wesley Dunford
3×3 · top 5.5% of 284,439 all-time · competing since November 2022 · 2022DUNF01
Wesley Dunford has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.25, set at DFW Cubing Summer 2023, puts him in the top 5.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,054th in the United States. Until February 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 4 competitions since November 2022, he has put 75 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 88% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 10.51 in November 2022 to 9.25, a 12% improvement. Wesley has entered four competitions, more competitions than 78% 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.
