Hanne Woods (* 19th March 1960 in Oslo as Hanne Pettersen ) is a Norwegian curler . She is two-time world champion and two-time European champion.

Woods made her international debut in 1981. At the beginning of the 1990s, she experienced the peak of her athletic career. At the 1990 World Cup in Västerås and the 1991 World Cup in Winnipeg , Woods played in the position of third and won the world title both times; she also became European champion in Lillehammer in 1990 . Woods could not quite build on these successes, but remained at the top of the world and won numerous other medals. At the 1999 European Championships in Chamonix , she was European champion for the second time.

Woods represented Norway at the 1988 Winter Games in Calgary and at the 1992 Winter Games in Albertville . The bronze or silver medals won do not have an official status, however, as curling was still a demonstration sport at that time. She finished fifth in Nagano in 1998 and seventh in Salt Lake City in 2002 .
