Jeopardy!‘s chaotic Tournament of Champions has its semifinalists after Wednesday’s (March 6) last quarterfinal game, which saw Troy Meyer cement himself as the potential new frontrunner. Meyer, a music executive and professional quizzer from Tampa, Florida, who won six games during Season 39, returned to the Alex Trebek Stage with a point to prove. He was up against Sean McShane, a tour guide from South Boston, Massachusetts, and Deb Bilodeau, a restaurant server from San Francisco, California. While other favorites like Cris Pannullo, Hannah Wilson, and Juveria Zaheer were knocked out of the competition early, Meyer lived up to expectations with a dominant performance. Meyer took an early lead in the first round, answering 14 clues correctly and amassing $7,000. He then leveled up in Double Jeopardy, finding and successfully answering both Daily Doubles, which put him in a runaway position with more than a third of the round still to play.
