Naomi Osaka is all ready. Despite her lack of experience on clay, she already surpassed the French Open‘s debut round taking down Lucia Bronzetti. As people anticipate her clash against the number one WTA star Iga Swiatek, she needs all the support she can get. And who better than her boyfriend for this?

Yes, Cordae just announced his support for his girlfriend. He has arrived in Paris! The rapper took to his Instagram stories and posted a photo of the city of love. On the other hand, Osaka’s daughter has already joined her in Paris. As the four-time Grand Slam champion spoke about it, fans could understand the support she felt attending Roland Garros with her daughter. “Shai (her daughter) is coming to Paris, so that’s something that’s keeping me very happy,” said the star.

Not only did Shai join her mother but also amused her with an adorable surprise. Referring to Shai’s first walk, Osaka shared an experience she will hold close to her heart. “Yesterday, she walked for the first time, so I was really happy about that. We’re going to practice some more when I get back. But it’s really cool to have her here, just to see how much she’s grown and how many things she’s doing differently. It’s kind of surreal,” said the proud mommy. So, with Cordae and Shai cheering for her, the Japanese tennis player’s spirits are high.

Cordae’s presence takes us back to the time he didn’t know much about tennis. He met Osaka at a basketball game for the Los Angeles Clippers in 2019. However, he didn’t know who she was. The only tennis player he knew was Serena Williams.

But coming back to the French Open, although Osaka beat Bronzetti by 6-1, 4-6, 7-5, she seemed visibly stressed during her initial press conference for Roland Garros. Given her lack of experience on the surface and her 12-9 statistics with 4-3 on clay this season, it seems a bit hard for her to stand tall against a champion like Swiatek. But she has enough people cheering for her.

Naomi Osaka’s boyfriend has been one of her biggest support systems. Before surprising the fans with his Paris tour, Cordae took the hustle of quarantine to be with Naomi Osaka. If this isn’t love, then what is?

Cordae always goes the extra mile to cheer up Naomi Osaka!

Cordae’s visit to Paris for Osaka is something fans will love. But this is not his first attempt to show his love for her. The Japanese told to People Magazine that she contacted her boyfriend and revealed her sadness during the pandemic after her US Open win in 2020. “I FaceTimed him a couple days earlier and said I was feeling sad and lonely in the bubble,” shared Naomi Osaka.

After this, her rapper boyfriend apparently boarded the plane and quarantined himself in a hotel for a couple of days before he could see her. But despite their close bond, Osaka is convinced her boyfriend doesn’t understand the rules of tennis. In fact, her 2019 U.S. Open was Cordae’s first tennis match ever.

Then, he was also present during the 2020 U.S. Open finals match where the 26-year-old defeated Victoria Azarenka. Now, Cordae’s presence in Paris ahead of Osaka’s second-round match against Swiatek has been a great booster for the Japanese.

This immense support from her boyfriend and daughter might make her play unbelievably well in the Roland Garros against Swiatek. Only time can tell! Who do you think will win this?
