Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Explorers) for Tuesday, March 11, 2025 (Season 41, Game 132):

Traveling in 1811 to an elevation of about 12,000 feet, Thomas Manning was the first Englishman to meet this figure

(correct response beneath the contestants)

Today’s Jeopardy! contestants:

James Corson, a nuclear engineer from Frederick, Maryland

Emily Johnson, a teacher from Savannah, Georgia

Harvey Silikovitz, an attorney & worldwide karaoke singer orignally from West Orange, New Jersey (1-day total: $23,600)

Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:

Yesterday’s game saw Harvey Silikovitz take down 8-day champion Laura Faddah after one of the most dominant performances of all time on the signalling device. Harvey—who has already become a near-universal fan favorite, especially after his interview yesterday spoke of his Parkinson’s diagnosis—successfully rang in on 85% of his 40 buzzer attempts during the game. As we enter Game 2, Harvey is rated by the new Unified Prediction Model to have a 72% chance of winning today against challengers Emily Johnson and James Corson. I have always thought that buzzer timing skill is the hardest to maintain from game to game, especially as we haven’t been given the specific timing data from the show’s ELVIS lockout system. (We don’t know if Harvey has the timing nearly down perfectly, or if his opponents yesterday just happened to be consistently slower than Harvey.)

Correct response: Who is the Dalai Lama?

More information about Final Jeopardy:

(The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2025 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)

Famous 19^th century traveler Thomas Manning became famous for his travels to China and Tibet; he was in demand in China due to his ability to practice medicine. This meant he had few obstacles in his way when traveling; in 1811, he became the first Englishman to enter Lhasa, the famed Tibetan holy city. While in Lhasa, he was granted an audience with the 9^th Dalai Lama.

Game Recap & Tonight’s Game Stats:

Looking to find out who won Jeopardy! today? Here’s the Tuesday, March 11, 2025 Jeopardy! by the numbers, along with a recap:

Jeopardy! Round:

(Categories: Chill Beats; Forever Stamps; It’s Hyphenated; 3-Named People; Ripped; From The Headlines)

In an opening segment that I think will surprise a lot of viewers after yesterday, both challengers got off to a good start. James doubled up through the Daily Double and led after 15; the scores at the commercials were James $5,800 Emily $2,800 Harvey $2,400.

Statistics at the first break (15 clues):

James 8 correct 1 incorrect
Emily 3 correct 0 incorrect
Harvey 3 correct 0 incorrect

Today’s interviews:

James is a breakfast cereal addict and stockpiles it.
Emily keeps injuring her ankles on trips to Spain.
Harvey has karaoked in 78 countries and all 50 U.S. states.

James picked up another 5 correct after the break to extend his lead going into the second break.

Statistics after the Jeopardy round:

James 13 correct 1 incorrect
Emily 8 correct 0 incorrect
Harvey 7 correct 0 incorrect

Scores after the Jeopardy! Round:

James $7,400
Emily $5,600
Harvey $3,600

Double Jeopardy! Round:

(Categories: State Capitols; Alliterative Books; The Business Of Show; Light Headed; Yikes, You Got A “V” In Math; Forwards & Backwards)

The Daily Doubles were crucial in this game; James picked up $10,000 from his, while Emily bet just $4,000 of her $14,400 in a category where she clearly felt comfortable. This not only meant James was leading going into Final, but it also left Harvey outside of score contention going into Final.

Statistics after Double Jeopardy:

James 23 correct 1 incorrect
Emily 20 correct 1 incorrect
Harvey 13 correct 2 incorrect
Total number of unplayed clues this season: 30 (0 today).

Scores going into Final:

James $29,000
Emily $20,800
Harvey $6,800

All three players were correct in Final; that makes James your new champion! He’ll be back tomorrow to defend.

Tonight’s results:

Harvey $6,800 + $6,800 = $13,600 (Who is the Dalai Lama?)
Emily $20,800 + $4,000 = $24,800 (Who is the Dalai Lama?)
James $29,000 + $13,000 = $42,000 (Who is the Dalai Lama? (Love you, Holly!!)) (1-day total: $42,000)

Andy’s Thoughts:

• The previous version of this site’s prediction model would have placed Harvey’s win chances today at nearly 90%. Seeing today’s results, I think the current model does a much better job of taking variance into account.
• Today’s box score will be linked to when posted by the show.

Final Jeopardy! wagering suggestions:

(Scores: James $29,000 Emily $20,800 Harvey $6,800)

Harvey: You need a pair of overbets to have a chance. Bet whatever you’d like. (Actual bet: $6,800)

Emily: If James bets to cover and is incorrect, he falls to $16,399. Bet no more than $4,399. (Actual bet: $4,000)

James: Standard cover bet today is $12,601. (Actual bet: $13,000)
