The Levene Gouldin & Thompson Tennis Challenger was a tennis tournament held in Binghamton, New York, United States from 1994-2019. A Binghamton and Vestal area law firm, Levene Gouldin & Thompson, was the title sponsor of the tournament from 2007 until the event's conclusion. The event was part of the ATP challenger series and was played on outdoor hard courts. Former Wimbledon champion and Olympic Gold medalist Andy Murray won the event in 2005.[1]
The 2020 and 2021 tournaments were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and quarantine.[2][3] In 2022, Tennis Charities of Binghamton announced that the protocols necessary for managing the pandemic required the cancellation of the 2022 event.[4][5] In 2023, the Tennis Charities of Binghamton announced that the event would be permanently cancelled, as the venue no longer qualifies as sufficient due to updated guidelines from the Association of Tennis Professionals.[6]
