Double Jeopardy! Maine Man Wins Again on Popular Game Show

UNITED STATES, JUL 2 – Thomas Hurley III argues a minor spelling mistake cost him a Jeopardy! win in 2013, with producers stating rules prevent credit for incorrect responses.

  • Jason Singer, a contestant from Maine, won two consecutive Jeopardy! episodes on Tuesday and Wednesday in 2025, becoming a two-time champion.
  • Singer's victory followed a streak of 13 consecutive one-day champions and was initially misreported as a unique marital milestone due to conflicting claims about past married winners.
  • After hearing from other married champions, Singer apologized publicly and personally to Kristin Sausville and others to correct the record and acknowledge their achievements.
  • Singer emphasized that winning Jeopardy! reflects being a thoughtful, inquisitive person who has dedicated significant effort and excelled despite intense pressure, expressing admiration for all champions.
  • Singer’s wins ended the streak of single-day champions, boosted viewer interest, and inspired talks of a possible Couples Tournament showcasing past winning couples.
