Jena Sims is tired of the misconception that her appearance in Netflix’s “Happy Gilmore 2” was solely because of her husband, LIV Golf star Brooks Koepka.
Sims took to TikTok to set the record straight, stating that she auditioned for the movie on her own merit, not because of her husband’s involvement.

In the movie, Sims had a brief appearance as a die-hard golf fan, alongside a star-studded cast of golfers and celebrities.
Meanwhile, Koepka, along with other golfers, competed against the “Maxi Golf” league team in the film, showcasing his acting skills alongside fellow LIV Golf star Bryson DeChambeau and PGA Tour players Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy.
