The latest episode of Jeopardy!, which aired on Friday, July 1, 2022, featured three contestants, including one-day winner Dave Bzdak. Show
Dave banked $2,000 after defeating June 29, 2022, episode winner Halley Ryherd, who took home just $1. Viewers have not seen a champion with a longer winning streak since Ryan Long’s 16-day streak, which was ended by Eric Ahasic (six wins). Jeopardy! is a game show where questions are posed in the form of clues, and answers are given in the form of questions. The official synopsis of the recent Daytime Emmy Award-winning series reads: “The host tests the knowledge of the contestants on a wide range of subjects and the winner gets to claim the title and keep the prize money.” In the latest episode, returning champion Dave Bzdak, a Syracuse professor, was up against Eleanor Dixon, a freelance technical editor from Vero Beach, Florida, and Shayan Sadegh, a medical scribe from Potomac, Maryland. Today's Jeopardy! winner, Eleanor DixonThe previous episode's winner, Dave Bzdak, was unable to bag a second win in today’s episode. Luck was not in his favor from the very start. The categories of the first round were On A Holiday, U.S. Cities, Animals & The Law, Fruits & Vegetables in French, Game Plan, and ‘X’s & ‘O’s. Florida native Eleanor Dixon led this round with six correct responses at the start of the game. She banked $3,400. Meanwhile, Dave was seen struggling as he scored $3,000. Shayan Sadegh played decently well and earned $2,000. The second round’s categories were One-Word Nonfiction Titles, Filmed in Georgia, It’s a Process, 20th Century Names, A Disaster of Biblical Proportions, and Italian Loanwords. Dave’s struggles continued in the Double Jeopardy round as he landed in third place with total earnings of $6,600. Shayan’s game improved, and he banked $10,400. Meanwhile, Eleanor’s total jumped to $12,218. In the Final Jeopardy round, all three contestants delivered the correct answer. Shayan played safe and wagered $2,801, Dave bet $3,801, and Eleanor wagered $8,600. Hence, Eleanor Dixon won Jeopardy! today.  Final Jeopardy! results todayThe category in the final round of the latest episode was “World Geography,” and the clue was as follows: “Mont Bellevue de l’Inini is the highest point in this European possession largely covered by the Amazon rainforest.” The correct answer, in the form of a question, was “What is French Guiana?”. Mont Bellevue de l’Inini is also known as Mont Bellevue, Bellevue de l’Inini, Montagne Bellevue, and Montagne Bellevue de l’Inini.

Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category World Geography) for Friday, July 1, 2022 (Season 38, Game 210): Mont Bellevue de l’Inini is the highest point in this European possession largely covered by the Amazon rainforest(correct response beneath the contestants) Today’s contestants:Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:Triple Stumpers in Final Jeopardy! have certainly kept the winnings down this week; yesterday’s winner Dave Bzdak won yesterday with just $2,000! But the more important thing is that the champion gets the opportunity to come back tomorrow to try to win more money; Dave will try to do that against Eleanor Dixon and Shayan Sadegh! On a more personal note: For the past two and a half years, I have often raised money for the MS Society of Canada through their “Gamers vs. MS” program. This July, Gamers vs. MS is running a month-long fundraising campaign called “Boss Battles.” In an attempt to raise $25,000, the Gamers vs. MS team has designed a “fundraising adventure” to defeat eight evil bosses. (Much like a Mario game might have eight bosses to defeat.) You can get more information about the program at https://www.gamersvsms.ca/bossbattles. Also, a heads-up to those who watch the show on WXPI in Pittsburgh: Starting Monday, Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! are switching time slots; Jeopardy! will be airing in Pittsburgh at 7:30, while Wheel of Fortune moves to 7:00. PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to get their vaccinations as soon as they are able to, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth. Are you going on the show and looking for information about how to bet in Final Jeopardy?
