Looking to find out who won Jeopardy! tonight? Today’s Jeopardy! results will go up on this page late afternoon, with full stats early evening. They will be seen in the comments section at the bottom of this page.

Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is best known for his authorship of the Sherlock Holmes stories. A lesser known fact was that Doyle was an avid cricketer, playing 10 first-class matches for the Marylebone Cricket Club. His highest score as a batsman was 43 and he took one career first-class wicket: W. G. Grace. (The baseball equivalent would have been having one career MLB strikeout as a pitcher: Babe Ruth.)
