Part of the ATP World Tour 250 series, it was held in the third week of September. The tournament was relocated by the Association of Tennis Professionals to Shenzhen as the ATP Shenzhen Open since 2013.

In 2007, Sonchat Ratiwatana and Sanchai Ratiwatana became the first Thai champions of the event, winning in the final against Wimbledon doubles champion Michaël Llodra, and partner Nicolas Mahut. In November 2013, the ATP announced that the tournament would be relocated to Shenzhen, China, as the ATP Shenzhen Open.[1]
