The BRD Timișoara Challenger was a tennis tournament held in Timișoara, Romania from 2004 until 2013. The event was part of the ATP Challenger Tour and was played on outdoor clay courts. In early 2012 it was announced that BRD – Groupe Société Générale will sponsor the tournament and thus it was renamed to include the name of the sponsor.[1] In 2013 it was cancelled due to financial reasons.[2]
