Yoav Nevo has been competing for 4 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.88, set at Cubing for Yuval 2023, puts him in the top 4.0% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 75th in Israel. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since August 2022, he has put 346 official solves on the record across ten events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, steadier than 55% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 19.62 in August 2022 to 10.22, a 48% improvement. Yoav has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
