Brooks Koepka and Jena Sims reportedly met each other in 2015 at the Masters. Around this time, Sims confessed that they were just friends. However, two years later, the couple went public in the U.S. Open, where Koepka won his first major.

Although this is usually a special event, the announcement caused a stir when announcer Joe Buck mistook Sims for Koepka’s ex-girlfriend, Becky Edwards. Fortunately, the couple escaped to Las Vegas to celebrate Koepka’s victory. Furthermore, Sims also admitted that Buck’s mishap wasn’t worth making an issue of. Since then, the couple has been going strong.
