2020 Top Seed Open – Singles

Kim Da-bin was the defending champion from 2019,[1] when it was an ITF W60 event. However, she was unable to participate due to insufficient ranking and travel restrictions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Singles
2020 Top Seed Open
Champion	Jennifer Brady
Runner-up	Jil Teichmann
Final score	6–3, 6–4
Draw	32 (6 Q / 4 WC )
Seeds	8

Jennifer Brady won her maiden WTA tour singles title, defeating Jil Teichmann in the final, 6–3, 6–4. Brady did not drop a set, or face a tiebreak in any set, throughout the entire tournament.

The second round match between Serena and Venus Williams marked the first time that two players had faced each other in four different decades. It also marked the longest gap between the first meeting and the last meeting between two players (22 years and 7 months).

With her quarterfinal win, Shelby Rogers became only the 4th player ranked outside the top 100 and the first since Virginie Razzano at the 2012 French Open to defeat Serena Williams in a main draw match.[2][3]
