Manomay Raghavendra has been competing for a year. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.28, set at Teublitz Open 2026, puts him in the top 1.7% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 154th in India. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 10 competitions since September 2025, he has put 288 official solves on the record across five events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 11.08 in September 2025 to 7.28, a 34% improvement. Manomay has entered ten competitions, more competitions than 92% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
