Da Conch Shack is in the same place where Jena and Brooks eventually tied the knot. Their wedding celebration in June 2022 at Amanyara resort in Turks and Caicos was nothing short of spectacular. The multi-day festivities featured custom Nike sneakers for guests, a white-themed beach party, and a performance by rapper Ludacris.

For Jena and Brooks, returning to Turks and Caicos clearly brings back beautiful memories. Their love story began at the 2015 Masters Tournament at Augusta National, where they first met in person. “We met at the 2015 Masters,” Sims said in 2018. “We were on Hole 7, which I don’t even remember, but he’s like, ‘Oh, I remember what you were wearing, where we were standing, everything.’ It was cool … We were just friends at that point.”

Other golf couples who make us believe in love
Golf has witnessed some truly inspiring love stories beyond Jena and Brooks. Rory McIlroy and Erica Stoll’s relationship began when she arranged a police escort after he overslept before his 2012 Ryder Cup tee time. They married in 2017 and recently reconciled after briefly filing for divorce in 2024, proving love can overcome obstacles.
Then there’s Dustin Johnson and Paulina Gretzky, whose decade-long romance started when Paulina’s mother played with Johnson in a pro-am. After nearly nine years of engagement and two sons together, they finally tied the knot in April 2022. Dustin openly admits his priorities shifted after meeting Paulina: “For me, golf was always the most important thing. And now, it’s Paulina and the kids.”
High school sweethearts Jordan Spieth and Annie Verret represent enduring young love. They’ve been together since their teenage years in Texas, married in 2018, and now have two children with a third on the way. Similarly, Scottie Scheffler and Meredith Scudder met as freshmen at Highland Park High School in Dallas. They maintained their relationship through college at rival universities before marrying in 2020.
These couples prove that behind every great golfer stands a supportive partner. Whether it’s supporting charitable causes like Jena’s Pageant of Hope or simply being present through victories and setbacks, these relationships showcase the power of love, loyalty, and partnership in professional sports.
