The party was to celebrate LIV Golf’s season-ending tournament in Miami.
Sims wrote on Instagram: “LIV at LIV, who’d a thought.”
Both Johnson and Koepka were among the first usurpers to join the controversial Saudi Arabia-backed LIV Golf tour.

Golfers, typically only political when it comes to their taxes, have been lambasted by human rights groups who take a dim view of the kingdom’s horrendous human rights record.
Both top-flight WAGs have millions of social media followers.
Koepka took his first LIV Golf tourney earlier this month when he defeated Peter Uihlein in a playoff.
“The last two years haven’t been fun. It’s been a long road,” Koepka told the Associated Press. “I didn’t know if my career was over for a half-second. So it’s nice to be able to come back and be able to win.”

As for Mr. Gretzky — aka Johnson — he captured the LIV Golf Invitational season individual title in early October. That resulted in a cool $18-million bonus.
And he appears to have no regrets about jumping to the Saudi-backed circuit after making $30 million the first year. Only money and golf appear to frame his worldview.
“We talked about this yesterday,” Johnson said sarcastically in early October. “I really regret my decision to come here. It’s just so terrible. I’m sitting there last night thinking about it, it was really bothering me a lot. Yeah, just can’t get over it.”
