Jena Sims Wrote “New Year, New Rory,” When A Post Says About Rory McIlroy’s Mistake
Some members of the Rebel League’s family have taken note of Rory McIlroy’s more lenient position on LIV Golf.
Jena Sims, the wife of LIV Golf star and five-time major champion Brooks Koepka, responded to recent remarks made by McIlroy on her Instagram Stories on Wednesday. The Northern Irishman stated, “I was maybe a little judgmental of the guys that went [to LIV Golf] at the start.”
Sims replied, “New Year, New Rory,” in response to a post from X that emphasized McIlroy’s words.
Previously considered one of the most vocal opponents of LIV Golf, McIlroy provided an alternative perspective this week on his colleagues leaving the Saudi-sponsored league, which currently features Jon Rahm, the current Masters champion.
“I think at this point, I was maybe a little judgmental of the guys that went [to LIV Golf] at the start, and I think it was a bit of a mistake on my part because I now realize not everyone is in my position or in Tiger’s [Woods] position,” As said by McIlroy on the podcast “Stick to Football”.

“We all turn professional to make a living playing the sports that we do, and I think that’s what I realized over the last two years. I can’t judge people for making that decision.”
