The international event, the Ryder Cup, is underway at Marco Simone Golf and Country Club. Now, before the Friday round teed off, an opening ceremony took place on Thursday, where captain Zach Johnson was present with his twelve-man squad. Brooks Koepka, being the only LIV golfer on the team, got booed by the public. 

Jena Sims, Brooks’ wife, appears quite oblivious to the situation. While her husband received harsh disapproval from the audience, Jena lamented the absence of another American compatriot.

As we already know, Jena Sims gave birth to little Crew back in July. Jena and the little baby had to take go through a lot of trouble because of a premature delivery. Needless to day, she knows what it takes to be a mother. 

Consequently, the ‘new mommy’ has been seen to be empathetic toward another mother who recently gave birth to a baby girl. Jordan Spieth and his wife, Annie Verret, welcomed their second child into the world a few days ago. The baby’s name is Sophie, and she was born on September 12, two weeks before the Ryder Cup. Jordan posted the picture of the newborn on his Instagram handle.

Now, given that the child needs her mother’s utmost care during this period, Annie took a hiatus and she is not part of the American WAG group of the 2023 Ryder Cup. Thus, as a gesture to show that the WAG group misses Annie, Jena Sims posted a picture of the group along with Annie’s picture in between.

The Instagram story was hilariously captioned: “Haters will say it’s photoshop”. Later, she again posted a picture of herself holding Annie’s printed photo. Though Jena’s actions portray her as a good friend, is she a good wife? Or has she chosen to ignore the insult?
