Jena Sims, the wife of Brooks Koepka, had a sweet message for her husband when she watched him almost make it back into the Masters championship race before coming up just short to Jon Rahm.
Koepka was four shots ahead of the leaders, but finished the fourth round with a 75. He finished 8 under par for the tournament and tied with fellow LIV golfer Phil Mickelson.

Regardless, Sims was very happy with the way her husband finished the tournament.
«I love you, I’m proud of you,» she wrote on her Instagram Stories.
Sims was with Koepka at Augusta National for the Par 3 contest. She caddied for the four-time Grand Slam champion while Paulina Gretzky caddied for Dustin Johnson at the event.

Sims and Koepka have been married since June of last year.
It was the first time Koepka had missed with a 54-hole lead. He’s held a similar lead three times at major tournaments and has previously won every one of them.
«Obviously, it’s super disappointing, right? I didn’t play well enough to win,» he told reporters after the tournament. «I hit a few shots where I didn’t feel like I got good breaks either…I didn’t feel like I did too bad, but that’s how golf works sometimes.»

Koepka missed the 2018 Masters with a wrist injury. He was just one shot behind Tiger Woods in 2019. He missed the cut in 2021 after trying to play after having surgery to repair a broken kneecap. He missed it again last year.
