‘Jeopardy!’ Contestant’s Changed Final Answer Leads to Stunning Win
A late correction on Final Jeopardy gives Chris D'Angelo the victory after he changed his answer and Williams finished with $6,599.
- On Wednesday, Chris D'Angelo became the new Jeopardy champion, defeating Williams and Allegra Rosenberg after a decisive Final Jeopardy answer change that secured him $19,401.
- D'Angelo initially wrote 'What is the Tet Offensive?' for the Final Jeopardy category '20th Century,' but crossed it out and correctly answered 'What is the Sputnik Launch?' to win.
- Williams wagered $3,101, finishing with $6,599, while D'Angelo wagered $6,601 to reach $19,401; had D'Angelo retained his original answer, Williams would have won by a few hundred dollars.
- Rosenberg found the last Daily Double on clue 21, while Williams fell behind after an incorrect response on clue 11 regarding the Queen of Sheba, affecting the game's trajectory.
- D'Angelo advances to game two on Thursday, while Williams remains eligible for the Tournament of Champions, extending his Jeopardy tenure despite Wednesday's loss.
