The Lexus Ilkley Trophy, previously named as the Ilkley Trophy, Fuzion 100 Ilkley Trophy and the Aegon Ilkley Trophy, is a tennis tournament for male and female professional players played on grass courts. The event is classified as a 125 ATP Challenger and a ITF 100 ITF Women's Circuit event. It has been held in Ilkley, United Kingdom, since 2015.
