Wow! This was a tough week for the contestants in Final Jeopardy! There were 2 triple stumpers and 2 clues that only one player got. Tuesday’s Business Founders clue was the high point of the week, with 2 correct responses from the panel. Of course, that was the only one I didn’t know so what’s was easiest for them was hardest for me. lol
