"I look up to each of the models on the covers and in the pages" - Brooks Koepka's wife and model Jena Sims

Brooks Koepka's wife and model, Jena Sims, shared an Instagram post releasing pictures from her photoshoot with SI Swimsuit.

The 36-year-old was seen posing in different swimsuits at beach locations in Bermuda. The eight-picture carousel post was headlined by a close-up photo of Sims smiling to the camera. She mentioned that it was her "favorite" one from the shoot.

Jena Sims penned a heartfelt note in the caption highlighting the preparation that went behind the shoot. The social media personality also busted the notion that SI Swimsuit models are "just girls in bikinis" and expressed her appreciation for all the models gracing the iconic brand's covers and pages.

"I worked my a** off for year 2, and not just in the gym. That’s why this is my favorite photo from the shoot. SI Swimsuit is more than just girls in bikinis, it’s inspirational women who are all killing their category. I look up to each of the models on the covers and in the pages, and still can’t believe I’m among them. I’ve never felt more happy, settled, and confident in my life- thank you MJ Day and the SI Swimsuit team."

Along with Sims, many other known personalities from the sporting, modelling, and social media world have appeared in the 2025 edition of SI Swimsuit, including Nelly Korda, Anna Hall, Gabby Thomas, Ilona Maher, Suni Lee, Katie Austin, Ellie Thumann, and Alix Earle.
