Cháng Qīng Shù or “The Evergreen Tree” as it is called in Swedish.
It is the nickname of everyone’s Jan-Ove Waldner, who was a big part of Sweden tearing down the so-called “Chinese wall” during the 1980s.
Waldner has been responsible for incredible achievements over the years – and now someone has collected a bunch of them.

The breakthrough for Jan-Ove Waldner, 57, came as early as 1982 when, as a 16-year-old, he made it to the final of the EC in Budapest, Hungary. Then there was a loss against the countryman Mikael “The Apple” Appelgrenbut as you know, success would come eventually.

With a career spanning no less than four decades, one can’t help but be impressed by Waldner’s unparalleled success. Two Olympic medals, including one gold, sixteen WC medals, six of which were of the gold variety, as well as a total of nineteen EC medals, of which nine were gold, are just some of the achievements that JO Waldner has achieved.
