Jena Sims is clapping back at the haters.
In a TikTok video posted Monday night, the actress and Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, 36, pushed back against the notion that she received a role in Netflix’s “Happy Gilmore 2” because she’s married to LIV Golf star Brooks Koepka, who appears in the star-studded comedy.
“When I actually auditioned for Happy Gilmore 2, but everyone thinks I’m in it because of my husband,” Sims captioned the video that featured her dancing in a trailer while mouthing, “And my man, thank you to my man.”
Sims made a brief appearance in the film as a die-hard fan of a golfer who rivals Adam Sandler’s titular Happy.
In addition to Koepka, who has been married to Sims since 2022, golfers such as Rory McIlroy, Bryson DeChambeau, Scottie Scheffler and Xander Schauffele were among those featured in the sequel to the 1996 original.
Sims told People this month she loved offering acting tips to Koepka, 35, not to mention the shared experience of being in a film together.
“He felt like he was stepping into my world,” Sims said. “I had to teach him how to read a script and how to find certain things within the script. It was cool watching him step out of his comfort zone because that rarely happens.”
Sims, who often supports Koepka on the road with their 2-year-old son Crew, said her role in “Happy Gilmore 2” is a stark contrast to how she typically goes about her business at golf tournaments.
“I try to blend into the background or even not even be seen at golf tournaments,” she relayed to People. “This was the complete opposite. I had to literally jump up and down and scream and try to get this other guy’s attention.”
A five-time major champion, Koepka tallied nine wins on the PGA Tour before defecting to LIV Golf in 2022.
Sims’ acting credits range from “Attack of the 50 Foot Cheerleader” to the “Sharknado” franchise.
