He took up golf at the age of 12 enjoyed a successful amateur career which culminated with representing his country, and winning the individual medal honours, in the 2010 Eisenhower Trophy. He turned professional following this performance, earning a place on the Challenge Tour after three runner-up finishes on the third-tier Nordic League in 2011. A further three runner-up finishes at Challenge Tour level, during Hansen"s rookie 2012 season, earned him fourth place in the season-ending rankings and a further promotion to the European Tour.
His best performance to date at this level has been a tie for third at the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open, where he briefly led late in the final round despite carding a quadruple-bogey nine at his second hole.
