The clubs

The sub-8 club

Every competitor whose 3×3 single has broken 8 seconds, with the day each one joined. Updated every morning.

7,988 people hold an official 3×3 single under 8 seconds: one in every 36 of the 285,895 people ever ranked in the event. The first was Erik Akkersdijk, 7.08 at Czech Open 2008. The newest member joined on 20 Sep 2026.

A club is joined on the day a competitor's best official single first goes under the line, and joining is permanent. The times below are induction singles, the solve that got each person in; many members are far faster now.
