Yasumasa Hane (羽根 泰正, Hane Yasumasa, born June 25, 1944) is a professional Go player.

Hane was one of the best players in the Nagoya branch of the Nihon Ki-in during his peak. He is probably better known for being the father of the former Kisei holder, Naoki Hane. He was also known as a major contributor in the development of Chinese fuseki. He was taught Go by Shimamura Toshihiro, and currently teaches his son, Naoki, along with Asano Yasuko and Kaori Aoba.
