Hrishikesh Ghongane has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.93, set at SCMU 2017, puts him in the top 13.4% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,111th in India. Across 8 competitions since January 2015, he has put 171 official solves on the record across ten events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 29.72 in January 2015 to 13.74, a 54% improvement. Hrishikesh has entered eight competitions, more competitions than 90% of everyone who has ever competed.

Best single per competition, 3×3. Faster is higher — the axis is the right way up.

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.
