Jennifer Brady defeated Jil Teichmann in the final, 6–3, 6–4 to win the singles tennis title at the 2020 Top Seed Open.[1][2] Brady did not drop a set, or face a tiebreak in any set, en route to her first WTA Tour singles title.

Kim Da-bin was the reigning champion from 2019,[3] when the event was a $60k event. However, she was unable to participate due to insufficient ranking and travel restrictions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

The second-round match between Serena and Venus Williams marked their 31st and final professional encounter, with Serena winning to end their head-to-head at 19–12 in her favor. It marked the first time that two players faced each other in four different decades, and the longest gap between the first and last meetings between two players (22 years and 7 months).

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