Second place is unfamiliar territory for Michael Jordan.
The Chicago Bulls legend spent the past handful of days competing in the long-running White Marlin Open located in Ocean City, Maryland. The 52nd annual event is known as the “World’s Largest Billfishing Tournament,” pitting hundreds of participants against each other for a chance to take home millions of dollars in prizes.
Jordan joined in on the fun with an 82-foot yacht, coined the “Catch 23.” According to the White Marlin Open’s official website, the boat featured a total of nine anglers who were hoping to make the biggest catch of the event. While they may not have achieved that goal, they came pretty darn close. Trey “Cricket” McMillian was the man to reel in a massive 71-pound white marlin on the sixth day of the contest. This put Jordan’s team behind only one other fishing crew, which snagged a 72-pound marlin three days prior.
Michael Jordan was spotted with his boatmates on the Catch 23 on Day 4 of the 2025 White Marlin Open at Harbour Island Marina on Aug. 7, 2025.As Jordan’s boat neared the dock for the official submission of the team’s big catch, you could rightfully hear the Chicago Bulls’ iconic intro song “Sirius” blaring over the broadcast. In equally fitting fashion, Jordan could be seen standing proudly with a cigar in hand.
The fish would go on to hold its spot as the second-largest white marlin of the compeition and earn an estimated $389,377 in prize money. The first-place finisher took home significnatly more with a whopping $3,914,197 estimated haul. Good news: That’s a ton of cheddar! Bad news: Michael Jordan is going to take the personally.
If you want to see Jordan make his heroic journey into the doc, a snippet from the broadcast of the White Marlin Open can be found on YouTube. I also encourage you to read through The Times’ latest piece on Michael Jordan’s win.
