Aaryav Khare has been competing for a year. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.02, set at Pune Spring Open 2026, puts him in the top 4.9% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 366th in India. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 12 competitions since October 2024, he has put 263 official solves on the record across seven events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 16% around a typical one; 92% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds hold a tighter spread. His 2×2 best has come down from 7.25 in October 2024 to 2.02, a 72% improvement. Aaryav has entered twelve competitions, more competitions than 94% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
