On December 11, 2025, Houston engineer Will Riley qualified for the Tournament of Champions on 'Jeopardy!' after winning his fourth consecutive game, finishing with a four-day total of $77,403. He defeated contestants Francis Boyle, a playwright from Ohio, and Jennifer Foote, a lawyer from New Mexico. Boyle gained attention during the anecdotes segment for sharing a 2008 theater connection to former champion Amy Schneider and her ex-wife, Kelly Anneken. Despite the notable link, Boyle finished with $6,400 after a misstep on a Daily Double. Riley maintained a lead, correctly answering the Final Jeopardy! clue about Marbury v. Madison, securing his win with a $6,000 wager. Foote ended with $5,800. The episode aired on weekday schedules, with next-day streaming on Hulu and Peacock.
