Blindfolded speedcuber Tommy Cherry reclaims Rubik's Cube world record in 11.56 seconds

Champion speedcuber Tommy Cherry has reclaimed a Guinness World Records title after solving a Rubik’s Cube blindfolded in 11.56 seconds, according to UPI Odd News.

Cherry, 21, set the new mark on June 28 at the Mid-Atlantic Quiet Championship 2026 in Branchburg, New Jersey. The record is for the fastest time to solve a 3x3x3 rotating puzzle cube while blindfolded.

He first captured the record in 2021 with a time of 15.27 seconds and has gone on to break it nearly every year since, the story said. The previous record of 11.67 seconds had been set by Australian Charlie Eggins in Sydney on Jan. 10.

Cherry and Eggins currently share the title for the fastest average blindfolded solve time, with both posting 14.05 seconds. Cherry said his latest record was his first since 2024 and that he was excited to improve again and hopes to keep going as long as he can.
