Today’s Jeopardy! contestants:
Sunil Hebbar, a physician from Redondo Beach, California
Rose Sloan, a computer science professor from Boston, Massachusetts
Tristan Williams, a data scientist originally from Lincoln, Nebraska (9-day total: $188,501)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:
Today, Tristan Williams looks to become the 21st superchampion in Jeopardy! history; however, Rose Sloan of the East Coast and Sunil Hebbar of the West Coast look to stop him from doing so.
Regardless of whether or not Tristan wins today, I think it will still take him a couple of games for him to make it onto some of the “top 20” leaderboards, though I’ve certainly been surprised in the past!

Final Jeopardy! Category: 20th Century Names
Final Jeopardy! Clue: Shunned by his religion when he went to study law in England, he met Christians who helped him awaken a “religious quest”
In order to redesign our merchandise area to serve you better in 2026, all merchandise sales have been temporarily taken offline. Look for a return in late 2026! All previous orders will still be supported.
Correct response: Who is Mohandas Gandhi?
More Information About Final Jeopardy!:
Although his experiences as a youth in India inspired a deep dislike of Christianity, Mohandas Gandhi later gained a great respect for Christ, mostly due to a devout Christian he met at a vegetarian boarding-house in London, who reminded Gandhi that “I am a vegetarian. I do not drink. Many Christians eat met and drink; but neither met eating nor drinking is enjoined by Scripture. Do please read the Bible.” After reading the Bible, Gandhi found the Sermon on the Mount to be a religious awakening for him, inspiring him to try to “unify the teaching of the [Bhagavad] Gita, the ‘Light of Asia’, and the Sermon on the Mount”. This awakening was extremely important for the spiritual side of a man who had been shunned by many in India for going to England in the first place to study law.
