Despite baby Shai's face remaining hidden, her onesie decorated with tennis ball and racquet designs delighted Osaka's followers.
Days prior to her Instagram post, Osaka's boyfriend Cordae announced their baby's name during a performance at Canada's Calgary Stampede on July 8.
The three-time Grammy nominee announced Shai's name mid-show, a fan capturing the moment and posting it to Twitter.
"My daughter Shai was just born a couple days ago, so I dedicate this performance to my baby girl Shai," the 25-year-old told the audience.
"Love you, I'm going back home."
