- Brooks Koepka is a pro golfer from West Palm Beach, Florida
- The LIV Golf League member won the U.S. Open in 2017 and 2018
- He married Jena Sims in June 2022
Brooks Koepka was spotted practicing for the 2023 Masters tournament with his new wife, Jena Sims, along for the exciting ride. The two-time U.S. Open winner is hoping to wear the iconic green jacket for the first time, but he’ll have to play better than five-time champion Tiger Woods and last year’s winner Scottie Scheffler, who are both gunning for the top title. Of course, with a cheerleader like Jena on his side, Brooks will always be a contender. And by the looks of her Instagram, the pair are picture perfect and ready to play! Let’s meet Brooks’ stunning muse, below!
