Walter laikre
Walter Laikre is one of Sweden’s most exciting young pool talents and already a proven name on the international junior stage.
Born in 2008, he has earned recognition for his calm match temperament, sharp shot-making, and mature all-round game well beyond his age.
His breakthrough results include runner-up finishes at both the WPA World Junior 10-Ball Championship and the European Junior Championships, followed by major wins in 2025, including the European Junior Championship and the EPBF Youth Tour Masters title
Competing successfully in both junior and open events, Laikre represents the new generation of Scandinavian pool, combining confidence, precision, and competitive focus. As a representative for Mezz, he reflects the same values that define the brand: quality, control, and performance at the table
