Tayyab Siraj has been competing for 3 years. His best event is the 3×3: a personal-best single of 7.75, set at Cube-a-thon Bengaluru 2026, puts him in the top 2.4% of the 289,612 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 231st in India. Until July 2008, no official 3×3 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 13 competitions since July 2023, he has put 252 official solves on the record across six events.

His 3×3 best has come down from 12.69 in July 2023 to 7.75, a 39% improvement. Tayyab has entered 13 competitions, more competitions than 94% 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.
