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

For many years prior, Augusta National Golf Club (home course of the Masters tournament), had come under fire for its membership policies. At one point, the club had a policy requiring all caddies be black, and did not admit its first African-American member until 1990. The club started receiving pressure in 2002 to admit female members (and pressure on corporate sponsors caused a couple of Masters tournaments to be broadcast commercial-free), but did not do so until 2012 when it admitted Rice and Moore.

If they don’t overthink it then we should have another 3/3 or all left standing get it. Finally another “easy” Friday clue.For awhile they had Fridays always as an almost “gimme”. So whoever will be in the lead before FJ should be winning, presuming a “conventional” wager.The category alone is already half the solution.
This being Friday, have a GREAT weekend everybody!!

Early on, I thought Miles would have this game; He even looks a bit like Ken Jennings. With Joe getting both Double J! DD’s, I knew it would be tight.

Have a good weekend yourself!
