Wesley Tseng
2×2 · top 6.1% of 186,767 all-time · competing since April 2022 · 2022TSEN01
Wesley Tseng has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.19, set at Berkeley Summer 2023, puts him in the top 6.1% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 2,437th in the United States. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 13 competitions since April 2022, he has put 219 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 91% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. That figure sets aside his 7 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 19.66 in April 2022 to 11.49, a 42% improvement. Wesley has entered 13 competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
