Biography

Father of two, Erlingsson has been playing snooker for more than twenty-five years, having taken up the sport while still at school.

Of one his treasured memories came when he was selected to represent Iceland in the 1991 Mita World Masters, although he lost to world top 16 star Dean Reynolds in his first match.

He first won the Iceland championship in 1984, a performance which earned him a trip to play in the IBSF World Championships in Singapore.

He repeated his achievement in 2001.

As well as snooker he enjoys chess and bridge, and when the Icelandic weather permits, a round of golf.
