On the 14th (local time), at the Edgewood Tahoe Golf Course (par 72, 6,709 yards) in Stateline, Nevada, USA, he celebrated by jumping into the lake right after winning the celebrity golf tournament, the American Century Championship (total prize money $750,000). He celebrated his victory with a high five with his father.

Fish is 42 years old this year. He has won six singles titles on the ATP Tour. In 2011, he reached a career-high singles world ranking of No. 7. He is an amateur golf expert who reclaimed the championship of this tournament after four years since 2020.

Ice hockey player Joe Pavelski (USA) finished 2nd (79 points), former golf queen Annika Sorenstam (Sweden) 3rd (68 points), and John Smoltz (USA), a renowned pitcher in Major League Baseball, placed 4th (64 points). This tournament gathers celebrities from across the United States to compete in golf skills.
