There was only one stumper this week, in Monday’s game. Only 2 contestants played Final Jeopardy! so we can’t say it was a triple stumper. Again, on Thursday, only 2 made it to the final round but they both got it right. The other 3 clues that were presented to all 3 contestants, went 3-2-1. Going by the numbers, Classic TV was the easiest and Building Projects was the hardest.

This week’s winners:
Mon 7/06/26 Caleb Groen $18,800
Tue 7/07/26 Caleb Groen $21,201
Wed 7/08/26 Caleb Groen $32,000
Thu 7/09/26 Caleb Groen $60,000
Fri 7/10/26 Caleb Groen $37,800

2-day champ Caleb Groen returned on Monday and won every game, adding a total of $169,801 to the $31,199 he won last week. The money Caleb won this week is real close but not over the $170,581 Jamie Ding won during the week of 3/30/2026. However, Caleb’s $60,000 on Thursday took top prize for highest 1-day winnings in Season 42 so far. With 2 weeks left in the season, it’s not inconceivable that someone will top that. With Caleb’s penchant for racking up runaways and betting big in FJ!, he could very well top it himself.

Jeopardy! paid out $169,801 to Caleb Groen, bringing his winnings up to $201,000 for 7 days. As usual, $25K in consolation prizes was paid out.
