Hello! I was very pleased to read the news the other day that Yogesh Raut has made his way through to the FINALS in Jeopardy!‘s 2024 Tournament of Champions!

Yogesh (who I interviewed for this blog last year) had a resounding victory over formidable opponents Emily Sands and David Sibley. The pivotal moment arrived during Final Jeopardy, where the clue asked about the only nation from its hemisphere to produce a U.N. secretary-general. All three contestants correctly responded with “Peru”, but Yogesh’s cash total of $21,400 was just too far out in front, and he’s now all set to battle for Jeopardy! glory against Ben Chan and Troy Meyer in the best-of-seven finals.

Good luck, Yogesh!
