Jena Sims appears in the coveted new Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue for the second time, and an exclusive photo reveals one of her scorching hot looks.

In the picture, the wife of LIV golfer Brooks Koepka rocks a sultry tan, sun-kissed blonde highlights, and a gold string bikini. The print magazine will be available starting Saturday, May 17.

The model, 36, also took to Instagram on Tuesday, May 13 to post behind-the-scenes footage of her shoot — from her workouts and clean eating, to snapshots of her enviable figure in one tiny bikini after another.

“The 2025 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue is out now 😍 YEAR TWO BABY!” Sims captioned the share, which showed the stunning tropical locale that was the perfect backdrop for her sizzling shoot.

A later post included some of the final pics, for which she wrote, “I worked my ass off for year 2 and not just at the gym.” She explained that the iconic swimsuit magazine is “more than just girls in bikinis. It’s inspirational women who are all killing their category. I look up to each of the models on the covers and in the pages, and still can’t believe I’m among them.”

Sims was photographed in Bermuda by renowned photographer Ben Watts, who also shot the Livvy Dunne cover. (There are four covers: influencer and gymnast Dunne, fellow gymnast Jordan Chiles, inclusive fashion icon Lauren Chan and Hollywood megastar Salma Hayek Pinault.)

The looks Sims modeled included a gold bikini with mermaid vibes, a white suit with rows of heavy necklaces, a teensy blue bikini and a cheeky gold one-piece. Sims posed on the beach, on a rock and in the water.
