Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Historic Names) for Friday, June 13, 2025 (Season 41, Game 200):

Some 200 years after her birth, she was awarded the rank of General in Maryland’s National Guard on Veterans Day 2024

(correct response beneath the contestants)

Today’s Jeopardy! contestants:

Kelly Cui, a student from Cambridge, Massachusetts

Katie Kornacki, a professor of English from Hartford, Connecticut

Matt Massie, an attorney originally from South Charleston, West Virginia (3-day total: $79,800)

Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:

At this point in the season, it would be almost impossible to unseat current champion Matt Massie from a spot in Champions Wildcard at least, and assuming there are no changes to the postseason format, he has a very strong chance of qualifying for the Tournament of Champions. However, those chances are not yet 100% for either tournament, and he can get those chances closer to 100% by continuing his strong play. That being said, challengers Kelly Cui and Katie Kornacki obviously want to unseat Matt and spend the weekend as champion themselves. We shall see what happens!

For those who watch on NBC during the day, U.S. Open golf coverage this afternoon on NBC is causing pre-emptions; Matt Carberry’s Google sheet is available for consultation, or check local listings.

Correct response: Who is Harriet Tubman?

More information about Final Jeopardy:

(The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2025 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)

Maryland-born Harriet Tubman, as an honor to her military contributions to the United States, was posthumously commissioned as a one-star general on Veterans Day 2024 by the state of Maryland.

“Each daring mission behind enemy territory was worthy of a medal,” said Major General Janeen L. Birckhead, the adjutant general of Maryland, during the ceremony. “With courage and selflessness, Harriet Tubman nobly advanced the survival of the Union and the proposition that all people are created equal.”

What I find most interesting about this clue is that it’s something that’s happened to Harriet Tubman since the last time she was asked about in Final Jeopardy—on June 17, 2022. Let’s just hope everyone completes her name this time.

Jeopardy! Round:

(Categories: Places In World History; Book Tours; When I Grow Up I Want To Be…; Die Hard; Describing The Olympic Event; Fin”Al” Words)

Statistics at the first break (15 clues):

Matt 9 correct 1 incorrect
Katie 3 correct 0 incorrect
Kelly 3 correct 0 incorrect

Today’s interviews:

Kelly learned dessert baking out of necessity; her parents rarely used an oven.
Katie is the mother of a 3-year-old daughter.

Matt 14 correct 3 incorrect
Kelly 6 correct 0 incorrect
Katie 8 correct 1 incorrect

Double Jeopardy! Round:

(Categories: Jamaica; Movie Sequels; Complete The Quote; Bloom County; Opus; Bill The Cat)

In a round with some difficult bottom-row clues, Matt and Kelly got Daily Doubles incorrect. The game was artificially closer with a number of ties, but a judge’s reversal of one of Katie’s incorrect responses gave Katie a $1,200 lead going into Final Jeopardy.

Kelly 9 correct 2 incorrect

Andy’s Thoughts:

• If I may make a suggestion to Matt, as he appears to be enough of a racing fan to want to drive a NASCAR stock car at 200mph: go all out, buy yourself a racing simulator, and join iRacing for its NASCAR content.
• Viewers are reminded that in order to go from an incorrect response to a correct one, a player is given twice the clue’s value in correction.
• Katie’s bet sizing today in Final Jeopardy unnecessarily gave Kelly further pathways to victory—it’s just one more reason why leaders should not bet a dollar more than they have to in Final Jeopardy.
• Today’s box score will be linked to when posted by the show.

Final Jeopardy! wagering suggestions:

(Scores: Katie $10,600 Matt $9,400 Kelly $5,200)

Matt: Cover bet over Kelly is $1,001. (Actual bet: $9,400)

Katie: Standard cover bet is $8,201. (Actual bet: $9,400)

Kelly: You can’t both defend against a Triple Stumper and bet to pass Matt if Katie bets just to cover Matt and Matt bets just to cover you. So, this comes down to what you think Matt will do. If you think Matt will bet big, bet less than $2,800. If you think he’ll bet small, bet at least $3,200. (Actual bet: $5,199)
