Grant Lahr has been competing for a year. His best event is the Clock: a personal-best single of 5.06, set at Grand Forks 2026, puts him in the top 4.5% of the 32,817 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 369th in the United States. Until April 2015, no official Clock solve in the world had been that fast. Across 3 competitions since October 2025, he has put 123 official solves on the record across seven events.

Grant has entered three competitions, more competitions than 69% 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.
