The golf world has often witnessed Brooks Koepka winning big and rejoicing, while Jena Sims has been a pillar of support throughout. This is especially true in the current season. She has been his biggest cheerleader through his wins and losses.
Now, the time has come for Sims to be the winning partner, and shine brightly. However, the timing may not be the most apt, with Koepka being burdened by the recent developments in his LIV Golf career. What is happening with the star couple of the golf world?

Jena Sims is an actor and model, and she has been active in her modeling career despite the changes in her personal life. Her marriage, childbirth, being a mother, and a second pregnancy could not deter her journey.
As a fruit of all her toil, she has recently received an honor from Sports Illustrated. She has won the title ‘SI Swimsuit Rookie 2024,’ after putting in a lot of effort in the process to win it. She shares the title with six other models, who all competed with thousands of models for this recognition.
Jena Sims was part of the twelve-model group, who were selected from the myriad of applications for the contest. Seven out of the twelve have now been named as Swimsuit Rookies of this year.

For the contest, an eight-month-pregnant Jena Sims had to perform a walk in May this year. She pulled it off with suave and elegance, despite the distressing physical condition she was in.
Coming back to Brooks Kopeka, what is going on with his career?

Brooks Koepka has had a phenomenal season so far this year. In fact, he played so well, besides his LIV career, he could also pile up points for the Ryder Cup race. He missed the auto-qualification by just one spot but made it to the team, anyway.
Now, although he still individually stands at a third position in the current LIV season, things are going south for his team. First, Chase Koepka’s relegation upset him greatly. As Chase finished in the final four positions individually, he now has to qualify his way to the next season. He will have to take the Asian Tour route to find his way back to LIV.
To add to this disheartening news, Brooks Koepka’s Smash GC team has also finished in the final four positions in the season standings. The quarter-final loss proved costly to them.

Now a part of the current season’s Tier 3 teams, Smash can fight for a 9th position in the Finals, but that’s where the ceiling is. Hopefully, his wife’s big win might cheer him up a little!
