After a four-year courtship, Naomi Osaka and Cordae may no longer be a match.

Three months after welcoming their first baby, the tennis star and the "Gifted" rapper—who began dating in 2019—are sparking speculation that the two have called it quits.

Naomi shared a cryptic post to X, formerly known as Twitter, writing on Oct. 17, "I just want someone that will watch the sunset with me," which came just weeks after she seemingly shared another hint at a split, simply writing in a Sept. 27 post, "The art of loving yourself."

Not to mention, the athlete, 26, has removed any photos or mentions of the "Super" artist, also 26, from her Instagram account and does not currently follow him on the social media platform.

Earlier this year, a source close to the four-time Grand Slam singles champion confirmed to E! News that the couple welcomed their baby girl Shai, sharing that they were "doing great" after their newest addition.

In January, Naomi announced her pregnancy after withdrawing from the 2023 Australian Open. The tennis pro, who has been open about mental health advocacy, detailed the past few years, as "interesting" but "challenging."

"These few months away from the sport has really given me a new love and appreciation for the game I've dedicated my life to," Naomi wrote on X Jan. 11 alongside a photo of a sonogram. "I realize that life is so short and I don't take any moments for granted, everyday is a new blessing and adventure. I know that I have so much to look forward to in the future, one thing I'm looking forward to is for my kid to watch one of my matches and tell someone, 'that's my mom,' haha."

And while she went on to note that she would be busy stepping into her new role this year, Naomi also shared that she plans on being back on the court come next.

"I'll see you guys in the start of the next one cause I'll be at Aus 2024," she noted of the upcoming tournament. "Love you all infinitely."
