# Tommy Cherry Sets Blindfolded Rubik’s Cube Record in 11.56 Seconds 2026-08-07T07:40:59+00:00 | World & Diplomacy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet American student Tommy Cherry, 21, solved a standard 3×3×3 Rubik’s Cube blindfolded in 11.56 seconds on June 28, according to The Times of India, setting a Guinness World Record. He memorised the scrambled cube before covering his eyes, then relied on recall and precise execution. Cherry first solved a cube in 2015, aged about 11, and entered competitions within weeks. He set his first Guinness record in 2021, at 15.27 seconds, and has since improved it repeatedly. The record has changed hands between Cherry and Australian cuber Charlie Eggins. Cherry also holds a 4.53-second official solve, coaches cubing and continues his undergraduate studies. ## Coverage - timesofindia.indiatimes.com Tags: Guinness World Records, Rubik’s Cube, speedcubing, Tommy Cherry Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/tommy-cherry-sets-blindfolded-rubiks-cube-record-in-11-56-seconds/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
