Adriana Harmeyer, a returning 13-day champ with winnings totaling $299,000, competed against Kelsey Kaunisviita Vockrodt and Ty Patton. During a break in the game, Patton shared with Jennings how his parenting advice had impacted his life.
Patton, a new father, expressed his joy and gratitude for the advice he received from Jennings regarding parenting. The advice resonated with him and left a lasting impact.
Harmeyer emerged victorious in the game, extending her winning streak to 14 days. Despite Patton’s strong performance, Harmeyer’s correct response to the Final Jeopardy! clue secured her victory with a total of $27,000 and a 14-day total of $326,000.
