2×2 · top 1.4% of 186,767 all-time · competing since July 2006 · 2006TOMI04

Yui Tomita (富田唯依) has been competing for 20 years. Her best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.31, set at Japan Championship 2019, puts her in the top 1.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 11th in Japan. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 33 competitions since July 2006, she has put 358 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, her 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 77% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. Her 2×2 best has come down from 6.50 in August 2009 to 1.31, an 80% improvement. Yui has entered 33 competitions, more competitions than 98% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 2×2. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
