Rahul Gupta of Midlothian, Virginia won on Friday and returns today as champion. On Wednesday, Rebecca Zoshak returns after the show ruled she was disadvantaged by a faulty Final Jeopardy! clue on January 11. Who will end the week as Jeopardy! champion?

Just like last week, each of the ten challengers hails from a different media market.
Two new markets: Boise and Casper-Riverton – the latter of which is, at no. 198 of 210 in the U.S., the smallest market to have a player appear on the show to date this season. (It was also the smallest market to be represented last season, by Pat Greiner, who won on April 7, 2017.)
Below the table of markets, I’ve added another table breaking down the contestant distribution by state and province.
