## Història

El torneig es va crear l'any 1995 categoria masculina dins el circuit ATP Challenger Tour amb el nom de Lexington Challenger i es va disputar en el Hilary J. Boone Tennis Complex. Dos anys després es va introduir la categoria femenina dins el circuit ITF. Durant els següent edicions va tenir els noms de Fifth Third Bank Tennis Championships i Kentucky Bank Tennis Championships.
L'any 2020, aprofitant que molts torneigs es van cancel·lar degut a la pandèmia per coronavirus de 2019-2020, el torneig va fer un pas endavant i va ser admès per formar part al circuit WTA, dins la categoria de International Tournaments, va canviar d'emplaçament per Top Seed Tennis Club i de nom per Top Seed Open (presented by Bluegrass Orthopaedics).
