Lisa Schlitt
Lisa Schlitt collected a hefty $139,100 over the course of 6 games in 2017. The microbiologist later made another appearance, while competing in the Tournament of Champions, in which she earned $15,400. Of the experience, she’s said: “The expectation kind of weighs on you…up against such formidable people. Everyone there has essentially proven themselves to be the best of the best, at least in the past couple years.” No pressure!

Jerry Frankel
Way back in the very first season of Jeopardy! Jerry Frankel made history by becoming a five day champion, winning $32,650, as well as becoming the very first winner of the Tournament of Champions! This feat won him an additional $100,000. However, he tragically passed away just two years after his Jeopardy! success.
