Rithishvar Ramesh has been competing for 2 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 9.02, set at SSN Cube Challenge 2025, puts him in the top 4.9% of the 288,433 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 510th in India. Until May 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since July 2024, he has put 196 official solves on the record across six events.

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.
