Final Jeopardy! clue: Harry Payne Whitney (Yale 1894, inherited $12 mil. 1904) led a U.S. team that ended British dominance in this sport
What is polo?
Scores going into Final:
Jose 7,750
Howard 4,250
Jen 2,750
Final Results:
Jen 2,750 – 2,750 = 0 (What is racquetball?)
Howard 4,250 + 2,751 = 7,001 (1-day total: $5,000)
Jose 7,750 – 751 = 6,999 (What is lacrosse?)
Full marks to Howard for getting what was one of the more difficult Final Jeopardy clues — and making the perfect wager — to snatch victory in this one! Howard’s Coryat score of 4,000 is the lowest of any winner thus far this season (The previous lowest was Ray Nhan’s 5750 in the season opener).
