Biography Bastiansen was a regular member of the Denmark Davis Cup team throughout the 1980s, which included stints in the World Group. He won 18 of the 29 singles matches that he played. All of his 16 doubles rubbers were with Michael Mortensen, for 10 wins.

His touring career began in 1982 and he won a Challenger title that year, the Tampere Open. Another good win came at the 1983 WCT Tournament of Champions where he upset American player Brian Teacher. He made the quarter-finals at the Campionati Internazionali di Sicilia in Palermo in 1984, as a qualifier.
