Jena Sims is one of the most well-known faces in professional golf. She is also a model and an actress and has been featured in various American television shows and movies. Sims is quite active on social media, especially Instagram, and shares regular updates about her life.
Jena Sims shared this despite her husband Brooks Koepka already having the status to play in the Open Championship until 2027. Koepka won the 2023 PGA Championship, giving him a five-year exemption to compete in the Major championship.
Earlier, the USGA announced a similar decision and created a pathway for LIV golfers to compete in the US Open. So, with two Major championships creating a pathway, it will be interesting to see if the PGA of America and the Masters follow this template.
The deadline for qualification for the Open Championship is LIV Golf Dallas, and for the US Open, it is LIV Golf Korea. The 2025 LIV Golf season started last week, so with R&A officially announcing this news today, this will motivate the golfers and push them to be at their best throughout the season.
