Ronak Narang has been competing for 12 years. His best event is the 3×3 one-handed: a personal-best single of 9.93, set at Shri Ram Cubing Challenge 2018, puts him in the top 1.0% of the 73,695 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 27th in India. Until December 2011, no official 3×3 one-handed solve in the world had been that fast. Across 11 competitions since January 2015, he has put 312 official solves on the record across five events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 21.57 in January 2015 to 8.52, a 61% improvement. Ronak has entered eleven competitions, more competitions than 93% 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.
