The minimum distance of all binary linear codes with dimension at most eight is known. The smallest open case for dimension nine is length n=46 with known bounds 19< d< 20. Here we present a [46,9,20]_2 code and show its uniqueness. Interestingly enough, this unique optimal code is asymmetric, i.e., it has a trivial automorphism group. Additionally, we show the non-existence of [47,10,20]_2 and [85,9,40]_2 codes.
