Brooks Koepka’s ‘Exotic’ Tan Lines in Jena Sims’ Reveal Wipes Away Miserable Valhalla Loss in Fans’ Eyes
He was the defending champion of the event. Unfortunately, he failed miserably to keep his hands on the title. Brooks Koepka, as a result, finished T26 tied with eight other golfers. However, the LIV Golf Pro did not wallow himself in the loss but picked himself up and moved forward. He didn’t do that alone though! Enter his wife, Jena Sims.
The golfer’s partner shared a series of pictures on her Instagram handle showcasing the two having the time of their lives on the beach on their break. She uploaded the same with the caption, “Just updating our “Jena and Brooks” on vacation for the golf editors.” Well, the fans made sure to express their approval for the same.
The 34-year-old took the break after a hectic week following the major. Brooks Koepka had, during the tourney, hit a total of 19 birdies as well as 8 bogeys, a double bogey, and an eagle, the last of which came at the par-5, 7th (Genuine Risk). He, thus, carded a total score of 9-under 275 while raking in a cut of $113,962. Such a finish was, apparently, not enough to topple the top athletes on the scoreboard, especially Xander Schauffele.
His wife, on the other hand, was also extremely busy owing to the SI Swimsuit 60th anniversary celebrations which took place in Florida. The actress had joined the magazine as a rookie last year following which she was invited to attend the commemoration. Thus, the diva was unable to attend the major alongside her husband Koepka. But not to fear, the two rejoined to spend time with each other at the beach, resulting in the golfer’s tan lines.
Netizens call for sunscreen on Brooks Koepka
The couple have been spotted many times off the greens, especially at beaches during their vacations. Back in 2019, he had gone to the Maldives with then-girlfriend Sims, fellow golfer Dustin Johnson, and Johnson’s then-longtime fiancée, Paulina Gretzky. What followed was a surprising picture of the 2023 PGA Championship winner in a thong which went ahead to become infamous across social media. Even back then the fans were worried about the tan lines despite the hilarious picture. This time around it wasn’t any different as his followers commented, “Get the sunscreen on that man’s shoulders,” and “Brooksy doing a masterclass job of hiding those tan lines.” But the cream of the crop came when a user responded, “Looks exotic.”
The couple met each other back in April 2015 at the Masters following which they went public with their relationship two years later. The golfer then proposed to the philanthropist in March 2021 and got married a year later in June 2022. From the time Brooks Koepka met Jena Sims till now, he has won a total of nine times on the PGA Tour including five majors while raking in four LIV Golf victories. One can’t help but attribute the wins as a result of the support exuded by the wife and it wouldn’t be wrong to call the relationship he has with her as his biggest achievement. That is exactly what a fan alluded to while dishing out similar comments, “You have the biggest win hanging on your back. No trophy will top Jena!” A couple of other fans also hinted at the same while consoling him for the recent loss at the 2024 PGA Championship; “I was rooting for you to win the PGA. But it looks like you’ve already won! You guys are awesome!!” and “Brooks still winning.”
