Saurabh Lingayat has been competing for 11 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 11.66, set at Pune Cube Open 2018, puts him in the top 12.7% of the 284,439 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 1,499th in India. Across 6 competitions since December 2015, he has put 71 official solves on the record across three events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 13% around a typical one, an early reading from 9 counted rounds. That figure sets aside his 3 DNFs. His 3×3 best has come down from 20.23 in December 2015 to 11.66, a 42% improvement. Saurabh has entered six competitions, more competitions than 86% of everyone who has ever competed.

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.
