‘Just As Big As a Major’: Brooks Koepka’s Wife Jena Sims Beams With Pride as Netizens Join in Celebrating Her ‘Win’

Jena Sims has a bewitching smile. But beyond her happy-go-lucky exterior, there’s a fighter. Sims has had a fair share of accomplishments this year, just like her husband Brooks Koepka. It has been a great year for the Koepka family as they both had professional and personal triumphs. Koepka won his fifth major title, and his missus earned a new accolade too.

Earlier this year, Sims was named Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Rookie. The success came on the heels of a rigorous audition process. After making it, she thanked her 283,000 followers on Instagram for voting for her. As the marvelous year draws towards an end, Sims decided to celebrate one of her biggest victories with her husband and some friends.

On Friday, Sims posted an array of pictures on her Instagram handle, beaming from ear to ear, with her baby boy Crew in her arms and her husband giving a peck on the cheek. She wrote: “We celebrate all wins in this family,” tagging Sports Illustrated Swimsuit and adding a love emoji. Needless to say, her fans fell for it, but behind the scenes, it had been an arduous journey to success.

Thousands of models submitted applications for the crowning glory. According to SI, 12 finalists were picked and the number was trimmed to seven. Those seven participants were the SI’s rookie class. When Sims walked in the annual runway show, she was pregnant with her baby boy.

Being on the cover of SI’s swimsuit rookie had been a dream for Sims. And once she achieved her goal, she cried in public. It was the tears of joy and relief, for being named SI Swimsuit Rookie alongside other famous models like Penny Lane, Brittney Nicole, Berkleigh Wright, Achieng Agutu, Nina Cash, and Sharina Gutierrez.

The actress’ Instagram post garnered a lot of attention, and fans were ecstatic to see her relish her wins with her family. Sims’ post received a lot of heart-warming comments from her and Koepka’s fans.

Not just a run-of-the-mill celebrity

An outpouring of love and applause filled her Instagram handle. One Sims-Koepka fan compared her win to her husband’s PGA Championship win, and wrote, “This is just as big as a major!”

Sims adds fun to her posts and she is never downbeat. That was confirmed by a netizen: “Awwww this looked so fun!!”

A lot of fans take pride in Sim’s achievements, for she is an inspiration to them. One fan wrote: “The 8th pic for me… We are so proud of our girl!!!!! Love you!!!!”

The 34-year-old also oozes positivity and spreads happiness. Thus went the another fan: “Cutest fam! So happy for you!”
