Brooks Koepka was in no mood for kisses from girlfriend Jena Sims before PGA Championship’s final round

In search of his fourth major title, Brooks Koepka began Sunday’s final round of the PGA Championship with a comfortable seven-shot lead.

But the same ultra-focused mentality that has enabled Koepka to win a pair of U.S. Opens and potentially a second PGA doesn’t leave room for distractions.

That means NO distraction of ANY kind.

Not even from his girlfriend, Jena Sims, who television cameras caught in an apparent attempt to give Koepka a good-luck kiss before he began his round.

But the No. 3-ranked golfer in the world had no time for a public display of affection when there was a title to be won.

Sims told Golf.com Saturday, “I’m so not discreet,” Sims said. “I’ll just wave, and he’ll tip his hat. I’ll blow him a kiss. I’m not trying to be too low-key. If I see him and he sees me, I’m like, ‘Hi!’”

Koepka’s priorities seem quite apparent. Kiss the Wanamaker Trophy first … girlfriend second.
