Levinson finished the tournament atop the podium, beating out over 100 other competitors in the field.

The Hardcourt Championships draw players from all across the country, including many former professional tennis players.

This is just the latest achievement in the successful tennis career of Levinson, who serves as the board president of the Santa Barbara Tennis Patrons.

Levinson was named to the 2025 USTA ITF 65-and-over Britannia Cup team, and captured the Santa Barbara Open Men’s 40-and-over Doubles championship alongside Ed Lazarus.
