This week, the majority of the final clues only had one correct response. On Wednesday, there were no correct answers from the two players left in the final round. Two players had the right response to Friday’s clue. For me, Monday and Wednesday were the easiest while Thursday and Friday were the hardest.

This week’s winners:
Mon 10/21/24 $22,700 Tristan Brown

Tristan Brown defeated returning champ Kelly Gates on Monday. The rest of the week belonged to Will Wallace. His 4-game winnings totaled $79,998 by Friday. Now we have to wait until Monday to see if Will can get that 5th win for a guaranteed spot in the Tournament of Champions.

Jeopardy!’s total winnings payout for the week were $102,698. $3,000 of the $25,000 consolation prizes went to Kelly Gates.
