Sanjana Shah has been competing for 8 years. Her best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 10.05, set at Cube Fiesta Surat 2023, puts her in the top 7.6% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 844th in India. Until May 2007, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 6 competitions since March 2019, she has put 196 official solves on the record across seven events.

Her 3×3 best has come down from 42.24 in March 2019 to 10.05, a 76% improvement. Sanjana has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% 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.
