Anders Hansen

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anders Hansen (born 16 September 1970) is a Danish golfer.

Hansen turned professional in 1995. It took him a few years to establish himself on the European Tour, with his first top 116 Order of Merit finish (the level a player requires to automatically regain his card) coming in 1999.

His only European Tour win to date was the 2002 Volvo PGA Championship, but he finished in the top 60 on the Order of Merit every year from 2000 to 2006, with a best of sixteenth in 2002. He has featured in the top 50 of the Official World Golf Rankings.

Hansen represented Denmark in the WGC-World Cup in 2002, 2003 and 2004.

Hansen qualified for the PGA tour for 2007, capturing the no. 4 spot sharing this position with two American players, eight strokes off the winner, McNeill.

Hansen had six top 10's in 2006 including a 3rd at Dubai Dersert Classic, playing the two final days in the leaderball with Tiger Woods and Retief Goosen, and a second in Italian Open for the second straight year.
