Serena Williams delighted fans by sharing some charming photos of her seldom-seen daughter, Adira, as the little one took to the tennis court.

On Monday, the tennis icon posted a series of images on Instagram, capturing moments where she introduced her 2-year-old to the world of tennis.

“This is me passing on my love for tennis to my youngest daughter,” Williams wrote in the caption.

The heartwarming pictures feature the toddler balancing a tennis ball on her racket, mirroring her mother’s impeccable technique.

Adira’s appearance sparked a wave of admiration from fans in the comments, many of whom speculated that she might one day follow in her mother’s legendary footsteps.

“Champion in the making 🎾,” one fan wrote. “Awww 😍😍🥺💕 2040 US OPEN CHAMPION! 🏆🔥🎾💪🏾” another quipped.

The 23-time Grand Slam winner, 44, welcomed Adira in August 2023 with her husband, Alexis Ohanian. The two are also parents to 8-year-old daughter Olympia.

Williams mainly likes to keep her family life out of the spotlight, but occasionally posts precious pics with her two girls.

Back in February, the Olympian shared snaps with her “mini me” Adira while on a beach vacation going for a swim.

In March, her daughters starred in their first campaign alongside Williams, posing for children’s clothing brand Janie and Jack.

For the photo shoot, the family posed together in a variety of matching pink looks from a limited-edition collection Williams created with the label. She also opened up about how much working with her daughters on the clothing line meant to her.

“Having my girls in the campaign was only right because this collection is all about family,” she told People. “Olympia had so much fun expressing her style, and Adira, even at her young age, loved being part of it in her own way. They were naturals.”

She even added that her oldest daughter was “in the director’s chair with the clapboard.”

Williams retired from tennis in 2022 in order to focus on her growing family with the Reddit co-founder — a decision she takes pride in.

“These days, if I have to choose between building my tennis résumé and building my family, I choose the latter,” she wrote in a personal essay at the time.
