The tournament was set to be held Sept. 15-21 and would have been the first ATP tournament held in Israel since 1996.

"Ensuring the security of our players, fans and all those involved in organizing a world-class event, is our No. 1 priority," Kermode said in a statement. "We hope to be back in Tel Aviv next year.
