Brooks Koepka’s wife Jena Sims on Netflix critiques, Masters hugs and more
reetings, everyone! I got ice cream with Jena Sims on Tuesday of Masters week to discuss Full Swing on Netflix, her husband Brooks Koepka and why the Masters is so special to them.
I interviewed Sims over Zoom just before Masters week in 2022 to discuss her Steve Madden golf shoe line, but this was my first time meeting with her in person.
Sims met Koepka via Instagram messages, so I figured why not reach out to her via Instagram to try and set up this interview?
As a big ice cream gal, I was really looking forward to getting a scoop with her while we discussed all things Jena and Brooks. (So, naturally, she was the perfect guest for our new series, The Scoop.)
We went to Big Dipper Ice Cream Parlor in North Augusta, just 10 or so minutes from the course. I went with cookie dough and rainbow sprinkles while Sims went with cake batter ice cream with sprinkles.
Sims opened up about Koepka being vulnerable in Full Swingon Netflix, 2022 life changes and injuries.
She also explained how they met for the first time at Augusta National and told me that she ended up having dinner with Koepka’s entire family the night they met.
Koepka and Sims travel with a personal chef, Noel “NoGee” Grob, so we talked about what’s on the menu for Masters week and why this was Sims’ first year caddying in the Par-3 Contest.

Sims is also a Sports IllustratedSwim Search top-12 finalist, so she’s spent some time creating content for that this week as well. Check out The Scoop, and enjoy!

Prince Harry cementing his separation from Meghan Markle even further
Experts believe Prince Harry’s recent actions in Hollywood prove that he’s decided to cement his separation from Meghan Markle.
Royal author, Ingrid Seward made these comments during her most recent interview with The Sun.
During that chat the expert touched on the newfound strategy the Sussexes are starting to employ, as well as its potential to take them into “slightly different ways” as a couple.
According to Ms Seward, “I feel that they’re both going slightly different ways to see if it works. They’ve tried it together, and it didn’t work so well. So, they’re doing it separately to see how well it works.”
She even referenced the prince’s surprise appearance on Jimmy Fallon, for their Halloween skit and called the entire thing pure “tomfoolery” before adding how “It’s really good to see a glimpse of the old Harry… and, hopefully, it will resonate with him too.”
Before signing off she also pointed out how, “It just means that they’re doing things in different ways on their own, which is eventually what all members of the Royal Family or members of any family do.”
For those unversed, the Duke and Duchess have been taking on a number of engagements solo in recent weeks, from a charity event in NYC, to South Africa and even the LA charity Meghan visited.

David Walliams delivers savage dig at Simon Cowell after Britain’s Got Talent axe
David Walliams has taken aim at Simon Cowell a year after he was axed from Britain’s Got Talent.
After a decade as one of the judges on the ITV reality talent show, David was fired and replaced by Bruno Tonioli when leaked recordings revealed he’d made scathing remarks about contestants.
The comedian, 53, apologised for his offensive comments but then took production company FremantleMedia to court, suing them for ‘significant damages’.
He eventually reached a settlement, reported to be around £5 million, but has remained tight-lipped about the fallout since then.
In a Q&A segment with young fans, David was asked by a boy called Jasper if ‘any of the characters in your books based on real people?’
‘That is a good question. Whenever I’m trying to think of an evil villain I always think “what would Simon Cowell do?”’ he quipped, leaving hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley bursting out in laughter.
David then went on to explain how a Britain’s Got Talent contestant called Cockroach Ken also inspired a character in a previous book.
He then told kids to ‘keep their eyes and ears open as you never know when you might have a good idea for a story’.
Earlier this year David was questioned about his controversial exit from BGT.
During an appearance on Lorraine, he was asked by host Lorraine Kelly if he’d been watching the latest season of BGT and whether he was ‘sorry’ about how he left.
After looking briefly surprised by the question he responded: ‘I’ve been travelling a lot, so I haven’t had a chance to see it.’
He then went on to say he’s been enjoying all the extra time he’d had to be creative and continued to talk about his writing pursuits and other upcoming projects.’
Although his response made it clear he wasn’t ready to discuss the matter, some fans said his response was ‘diplomatic’ while others labelled him ‘bitter’.
After the case was settled late last year, Fremantle said it was ‘sincerely sorry’ that his ‘private conversations’ were published.

Jordan Spieth Responds to Online Rumors: “It’s a Set-Up, I’m Being Blackmailed”
Golf star Jordan Spieth has hit back against rumors circulating online, calling them a “set-up” and claiming he is the target of blackmail.
The three-time major champion took to social media to set the record straight after false information began spreading across various platforms.
In a strongly worded post, Spieth stated, “There’s a lot of misinformation being shared right now. This is nothing more than a calculated set-up, and I am being blackmailed.”
Although he did not elaborate on the nature of the rumors, Spieth emphasized that the claims have no basis in truth and warned fans not to believe unverified stories circulating on the internet.
Spieth’s team is reportedly investigating the origins of the rumors and has hinted that legal action could be pursued against those responsible.
“We’re living in a time where anyone can say anything online without evidence,” one of Spieth’s representatives shared in a statement. “Jordan is committed to maintaining his focus on the game and protecting his reputation from these baseless attacks.”
With no official comment yet from law enforcement, fans are rallying in support of Spieth, expressing their disappointment in the prevalence of online misinformation.
