Givone, a native of Westchester (New York), turned professional in 1994 following three years of college tennis at Georgia Tech.[1] He was a doubles bronze medalist at the University Games and on the professional tour reached a career high singles ranking of 347 in the world. His two ATP Tour main draw appearances included a first round match against Mark Philippoussis at the 1995 Legg Mason Tennis Classic, which he lost 4–6 in the third set.[2]

A shoulder injury ended his career at the age of 26 and he now works in finance.[3]
