James Holzhauer, Emma Boettcher Stumped By Easy Clue In ‘Jeopardy!’ Rematch

Boettcher, who ended Holzhauer’s win streak at 32 on an episode in June and ruined his bid to overtake Ken Jennings’ earnings record, picked a “Lawyers, Law & Legality” clue for $800:

“This lawyer’s star rose while repping Stormy Daniels but fell after he was accused of trying to extort millions from Nike in 2019.”

For anyone who has even casually followed the Donald Trump news cycle, the question would appear to be pretty easy.

But not a buzz-in was heard from Holzhauer, Boettcher or Francois Barcomb.

The final concludes Friday, with Holzhauer at $49,326, Boettcher at $26,400 and Barcomb at $1,800. The highest two-game total wins the $250,000 first prize.
