We observed the optical afterglow of GRB 091020 
(e.g. Racusin et al., GCN 10048; Gorbovskoy et al., 
GCN 10052; Perley GCN 10060) with Xinglong TNT 
telescope from  Oct. 22, 20:27:52(UT),1.952 days 
after the burst. The optical afterglow (Gorbovskoy 
et al., GCN 10052; Perley GCN 10060) was not detected 
in our combined image with a duration of 7*600 sec.
The upper limit is estimated to be R~21.4 mag 
from  USNO-B1.0 R2 magnitude, at the mean time of 
1.974 days since the trigger.
