Jennings and Holzhauer have each won a night in the GOAT tournament, leaving them two victories from claiming the “Greatest of All-Time” title and its million-dollar prize. The players compete in two half-hour segments, with the total points earned from both segments combined to determine who will top the night.
Jennings was victorious on the first half-hour heat with 51,200 points, with Holzhauer scoring 27,200 and Rutter trailing with 17,600. Holzhauer was clearly going for it in the second game, although his daredevil approach didn’t work on one Daily Double, costing him 5,000 points. The final tally saw Jennings triumph with 67,600 points, with Holzhauer in second at 33,692 and Rutter in the show position at 23,467.
Jennings is now in position to wrap up the tournament if he wins again when the show next airs on Tuesday, Jan. 14 at 8 PM ET/PT. Like in the World Series, the tournament will have additional matches only if necessary.
I adore Ken, but adore James just a little bit more, sooooo... Go James!! BTW.. Since Alex Trebek announced he has taped his last episode, who else thinks Ken Jennings would be the perfect Jeopardy host? (yes, James is my fav but Ken would be the ideal host)
