Warning: This page contains spoilers for the May 9, 2023, first game of Jeopardy! Masters — please do not scroll down if you wish to avoid being spoiled. It will be updated alongside the Eastern Time airing of the show, beginning at about 8:00 PM Eastern.
This game’s Jeopardy! Masters contestants:
Mattea Roach, a writer & podcaster from Toronto, Ontario, Canada (0 points)
Amy Schneider, a writer from Oakland, California (1 point)
Sam Buttrey, an associate professor at the Naval Postgraduate School from Pacific Grove, California (1 point)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:
Tonight’s first game features Mattea Roach, Amy Schneider, and Sam Buttrey. Amy and Sam both finished a strong second place on the event’s opening night—while I hesitate to call this a “must-win” game for any of these players, all three could certainly use the confidence boost that a win would provide. I’m expecting this to be an evenly-matched game that anyone is capable of winning if the categories break the right way for them.
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 can, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.
