Muhammed Shehzad Khan has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 6.06, set at South India Cube Championship 2025, puts him in the top 0.52% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 46th in India. Until June 2011, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 50 competitions since October 2015, he has put 1,911 official solves on the record across twelve events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 25.30 in October 2015 to 6.06, a 76% improvement. Muhammed has entered 50 competitions, more competitions than 99% 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.
