Dhruv Chiragkumar Desai has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 18.83, set at Australian Nationals 2025, puts him in the top 36.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 3,536th in Australia. Across 6 competitions since November 2024, he has put 70 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 7 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 2 DNFs.

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.
