At the 2017 Swiss Open Gstaad, Hanfmann made a sensational run to the final after defeating Facundo Bagnis, third seed and defending champion Feliciano López, eighth seed João Sousa and sixth seed Robin Haase, again as a qualifier. In his semifinal victory over Haase he saved four match points.[5] He lost to Fabio Fognini in the final.

2018–2019: Grand Slam debut at US and French Open, top 100

He reached the top 100 at World No. 99 on 16 July 2018 following his Challenger title in Braunschweig, Germany.

2020–2021: Second ATP final, top-10 win, Australian Open, Wimbledon & Masters debuts

Hanfmann reached his second career ATP Tour final at the 2020 Generali Open Kitzbühel in Austria, but lost that final in straight sets to Serbian Miomir Kecmanović.[6]

He recorded his maiden top-10 win against Gaël Monfils in the first round at the 2020 Hamburg European Open in Germany.

He made his debut at the 2021 Australian Open and at a Masters 1000 level at the 2021 Miami Open where he defeated Steve Johnson.

2022: First Major win, fourth ATP semifinal, out of top 100

At the 2022 Australian Open he won his first match at a Grand Slam defeating wildcard Thanasi Kokkinakis.

He skipped the clay season in Europe and was unable to qualify for the French Open and Wimbledon and as a result his ranking dropped to No. 152 on 18 July 2022.

Following Wimbledon he reached the round of 16 at the 2022 Swiss Open Gstaad as a qualifier. Next at the 2022 Generali Open Kitzbühel he reached his fourth ATP semifinal overall and second at this tournament defeating Dominic Thiem for one of his biggest wins in his career.[7][8]

2023: Tenth clay court and first Masters quarterfinals, top 65

At the 2023 Chile Open he reached his ninth quarterfinal on clay and of his career as a qualifier defeating two Spaniards, defending champion Pedro Martínez and Roberto Carballes Baena.[9]

At the 2023 U.S. Men's Clay Court Championships he reached his tenth clay court quarterfinal as a qualifier defeating Yosuke Watanuki and second seed Tommy Paul, his biggest win in three years.[10] Next he reached his fifth ATP semifinal defeating Tomas Machac. He lost to Tomas Martin Etcheverry in straight sets.[11] As a result he rose close to 25 positions into the top 110 on 10 April 2023.

At the 2023 Mutua Madrid Open on his main draw debut as a qualifier, he reached the third round on a Masters level for the first time in his career and in only his second Masters participation, defeating Juan Pablo Varillas and 15th seed Lorenzo Musetti.[12]

Ranked No. 101 at the 2023 Italian Open (tennis) also on his debut at this tournament as a qualifier, he reached the third round defeating Nicolás Jarry and ninth seed Taylor Fritz for his first top-10 win of the season and only second in his career.[13] Next he defeated Marco Cecchinato to reach his first Masters fourth round and sixth seed Andrey Rublev, his third career top-10 win, to reach his first Masters quarterfinal. As a result he moved close to 40 positions up to a new career-high singles ranking in the top 65.
