As of August 29, 2020

The Western & Southern Open 2020 was a women's tennis tournament that this year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, was held in New York City and not, as usual, in Mason near Cincinnati . The Premier 5 hard court tournament was part of the WTA Tour 2020 and took place from August 21 to 29, 2020.

The defending champions were Madison Keys in singles and the pairing Lucie Hradecká / Andreja Klepač in doubles.

After a series of police violence against blacks in the USA, the Japanese Naomi Osaka , who lives in the United States, boycotted her semi-final game and wanted to let her opponent win. The organizer then canceled all games that day and negotiated with Osaka that the game would take place two days later.
