Ralf Souquet

Modern Era 1960-2000
DE
1968present

Ralf **Kaiser** Souquet has been Germany's most successful cue-sports export — a fixture in the world top-10 for more than 25 years and the European anchor on the Mosconi Cup through its golden run.

Souquet won the WPA World Nine-ball Championship in 1996 and accumulated more than 50 major international titles across nine-ball, eight-ball, ten-ball, and straight-pool variants. He has played in every Mosconi Cup from 1995 through the late 2010s — the longest unbroken streak in the event.

His ramrod-straight posture and metronomic pre-shot routine are among the most copied stances in the sport.
