Feliks Aleksanders Zemdegs[1] (/ˈfɛlɪks ˈzɛmdɛɡz/, Latvian: Fēlikss Zemdegs; born 20 December 1995) is an Australian Rubik's Cube speedsolver. He is one of only two speedcubers ever to win the World Cube Association World Championship twice (the other being Max Park), winning in 2013 and 2015, and is widely considered the most successful and greatest speedcuber of all time.[2][3] He has set more than 350 records across various speedcubing events: 121 world records (being the only cuber to have more than 100), 214 continental records, and 7 national records.[4][5]
