“Just updating our “Jena and Brooks” on vacation photos for the golf editors.”

All about Brooks Koepka and Jena Sims' relationship
Koepka and Jena Sims first met at the 2015 Masters. Speaking about when they first met, Sims reminisced via Golf Digest:
"We met at the 2015 Masters. We were on Hole 7, which I don't even remember, but he's like, 'Oh, I remember what you were wearing, where we were standing, everything.' It was cool … We were just friends at that point."
The pair first started out as friends, but started dating in 2017. Even after they made their relationship public, Sims was mistakenly identified as Brooks Koepka’s ex-girlfriend. During that time, the couple decided to get away from the world. Speaking about their trip to Las Vegas, Sims recalled:
"For five days, we kinda escaped it. We were in our own little world in Vegas celebrating. So we didn't really have to experience what the media blew it up to be. We were by the pool and the casino just hanging out, no worries about that at all. And Brooks ended up meeting Joe Buck. They're totally cool."
On March 3, 2021, Koepka proposed to Sims in Florida. The couple went on to tie the knot on June 4, 2022 after a week-long celebration in Turks and Caicos. On July 27, 2023, the couple welcomed their first child into the world, Crew.
Sims has accompanied the golfer at various tournaments, including the 2023 Ryder Cup, and some of his Major championship wins.
