Calle Carlsson Appointed Chief Operating Officer of Caddies Europe AB.

Calle Carlsson has been appointed Chief Operating Officer (COO) and Deputy CEO of Caddies Europe AB. Calle brings with him an extensive and accomplished international career in the golf industry and will play a key role in the continued growth of both Caddies and its subsidiary, GolfStar, across Europe.

“The golf industry is undergoing major transformation, and I look forward to helping lead that change,” says Calle Carlsson.

For the past two decades, Calle has held executive positions in golf management. Most recently, he served as Director of Business Development for the European sports agency 54, headquartered in London and active in nine countries. The founders of 54 are widely recognized as the architects behind the LIV Golf tour.

Prior to his tenure at 54, Calle was the CEO of the renowned Spanish golf resort Infinitum (formerly Lumine), operated by Troon. Calle also served on Troon’s international advisory board, among other key roles.

“I’ve followed GolfStar since 2018 when we began our collaboration at Infinitum. In the past, there haven’t been many attractive golf industry roles connected to Sweden. But now, with the Swedish company Caddies Europe – which owns and operates GolfStar – I have the opportunity to help shape the future of golf for both players and course owners. It’s not just interesting, it’s exciting and meaningful to be part of leading that change,” says Calle Carlsson.

Tony Trigell, Group CEO and Founder of Caddies Europe and GolfStar, adds:

“Calle is one of the most experienced professionals in golf operations worldwide. His international perspective, extensive network, and strategic mindset – combined with a practical understanding of golfers’ needs and commercial course management – will help elevate the entire Caddies Group to a new level.”

“I’m fully confident that Calle will be a strategic asset in successfully establishing Caddies, GolfStar, and our other subsidiaries in the European golf market,” Tony concludes.

Calle will assume his new role on 1 September and will be based in both Spain and Sweden.
