Zuheir Daowd has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 1.42, set at Fuengirola Cubea 2018, puts him in the top 1.8% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 35th in Norway. Until November 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since November 2016, he has put 559 official solves on the record across eight events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 14% around a typical one; 76% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 3×3 best has come down from 19.19 in November 2016 to 9.36, a 51% improvement. Zuheir has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. 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.
