Amy's run is over
Well, Jeopardy! fans, Amy Schneider's remarkable 40-game win streak came to an end, but not before she became the second-longest consecutive winner in the history of the popular game show. The only contestant with more victories is Ken Jennings with 74 wins. Amy appeared to be taking aim at Ken's record until she was defeated yesterday by Rhone Talsma, a librarian from Chicago, Illinois.
During her run, Amy amassed total winnings of $1,800, placing her in fourth place earnings-wise alongside behind Natt Amodeo, James Holzhauer and, of course, Ken Jeennings. However, we haven't seen the last of the engineering manager who lives in Oakland, California. She will appear on Jeopardy!'s Tournament of Champions.
