The times haven’t been that good for Nike. From stopping its manufacturing equipment back in 2016 to letting go of its long-time partner Tiger Woods along with Jason Day. However, the brand saw itself breathe a sigh of relief when Brooks Koepka took to the internet to showcase his partnership with the label. Well, it appears he has done it yet again, but with a Crew Sims Koepka twist!

Yes, you heard that right! Surprisingly, the golfer decided to add his baby to the Swoosh Club a little while back. Interestingly, a video was shared via his wife, Jena Sims’s Instagram handle, showcasing the same, and fans couldn’t get enough!

The video uploaded by the golfer’s wife started off by mentioning how Crew was born premature with torticollis, a condition where the neck becomes stiff, making it hard or painful to turn the head. As a result of the same, the couple decided to use helmet therapy in a bid to help their son. Well, the helmet that came was soon to be met with yet another surprise—none other than a Nike logo.

The post showcased how the full white protective gear was made to “match Daddy” and his white cap with a black Swoosh logo. The two used Cricut to make a symbol of the same following, which they pasted to the helmet. Just like Koepka Sr. when he won tournaments sporting his all-white Nike gear.

Just moments after the premature birth of their child, back in 2023, he was shifted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). However, fortunately, on the 20th day following his birth, the baby champ was discharged from the hospital, bringing smiles to the faces of the parents and fans as a whole.
