1981

Anja Sofia Tess Pärson (born 25 April 1981) is a Swedish former alpine skier.

She is an Olympic gold medalist, seven-time gold medalist at the World Championships, and two-time overall Alpine Skiing World Cup champion.

1998

Her first World Cup race was a giant slalom at the World Cup Finals at Crans-Montana, Switzerland (on 15 March 1998).

Pärson has won seven gold medals in the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships, in 2001 (slalom), 2003 (giant slalom), 2005 (giant slalom, super-G) and 2007 (super-G, super combined, downhill).

These go along with two silver and three bronze medals in other events in 2001, 2005, 2007 and 2011.

2002

She clinched the silver medal in the giant slalom and the bronze medal in the slalom at the 2002 Winter Olympics, and added the gold in slalom plus two more bronze medals in downhill and combined in 2006 Winter Olympics.

2004

Pärson won the Alpine Skiing World Cup overall title in 2004 and 2005.

The latter title was won by the smallest margin ever, only 3 points over her fierce rival, Janica Kostelić.

2005

Initially a slalom and giant slalom specialist, she won her first super-G and downhill races in March 2005 at San Sicario, Italy, during the pre-Olympic competitions.

In total, she has won 42 World Cup races in all five disciplines.

2006

After two disappointing seasons (2006/07 and 2007/08 where she finished fifth and sixth in the overall cup), she was back to her best over the 2008/09 season, finishing third in the overall cup.

She was awarded the Svenska Dagbladet Gold Medal in 2006 and in 2007.
