Sahaj Shrivastava has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.36, set at Ottawa Side Events B 2025, puts him in the top 8.5% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 785th in Canada. Until February 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 9 competitions since February 2024, he has put 173 official solves on the record across eight events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 12.17 in February 2024 to 10.36, a 15% improvement. Sahaj has entered nine competitions, more competitions than 91% 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.
