The World Record (or WR) for an official event is the best known result achieved in an official solve in competition for that event, up to a certain point in time. This is accompanied by an official world rank of 1 in that event, and is thus the highest possible honor a solve can have. World records usually do not last for more than a year or so, although there have been some exceptions, notably Maskow's 5 year reign as MBLD champion from 2013-2018.

The WR for 3x3 is considered by far the most important, because it is the most popular event for cubers and non-cubers alike.
