Brooks Koepka's wife, Jena Sims, recently revealed how much time is left for their son Crew's helmet. For the uninitiated, Crew has been wearing a helmet for nearly a year due to medical reasons, but it would come off soon.
Koepka and Sims welcomed their son, Crew, on July 27, 2023. However, he was born prematurely, as Sims had to undergo an emergency C-section. As a result, he was kept in the NICU for a few days, which led to Flat Head Syndrome. To help rectify this, doctors prescribed a helmet to protect his head and ensure proper shaping.
On Monday, February 10, Jena Sims shared an important update regarding Crew's helmet on Instagram.
"First off, look at this round head down to just under 3 weeks left of helmet. Second, I got some curl spray for him and oh my god these curls," she wrote.
