Notes:
- For events formatted as an Average of 5, the Cutoff is the time that the competitor must beat in at least one of the first two attempts in order to complete an average. If the Cutoff is not achieved, the format of the event becomes a Best of 2, meaning that competitor may not complete the last 3 solves of the average.
- For events formatted as an Mean of 3, the Cutoff is the time that the competitor must beat in the first attempt in order to complete a mean. If the Cutoff is not achieved, the format of the event becomes a Best of 1, meaning that the competitor may not complete the last 2 solves of the mean.
- The Time Limit is the maximum amount of time allowed to complete each attempt.
- The WCA Regulations contain more in-depth descriptions of the Cutoff and Time Limit.
- The number of competitors who proceed to the next round is based on the rankings from the previous round of the respective event.
