Jeopardy! Thursday May 2, 2024, Recap, Winner and Final Answer
In the Thursday May 2, 2024, episode of Jeopardy!, it was a tense contest between three formidable opponents: Sarah Hardy, a pediatrician from Hot Springs, Arkansas; Angelus Kocoshis, an attorney with a passion for flower farming from Muncie, Indiana; and Weckiai Rannila, an engineer hailing from Albuquerque, New Mexico, seeking to extend her winning streak.
The first round presented an engaging mix of categories, including “A View of the City,” “Celebrity Siblings,” and “Diaries & Journals.” Early on, Angelus took a bold risk with a true Daily Double in the “Diaries & Journals” category, but misfortune struck as they lost $2,400, answering incorrectly. Despite this setback, Weckiai demonstrated consistent performance, leading the scores at the first break with $4,600.
As the game progressed into Double Jeopardy!, the contestants navigated through categories such as “Literary North Carolina,” “The Greats of History,” and “Word Origins.” Angelus redeemed themselves by successfully answering the first Daily Double, doubling their score to $6,800. However, luck did not favor them with the next Daily Double, as they lost $5,000, narrowing the gap between the contestants.
Heading into Final Jeopardy!, Weckiai maintained a substantial lead with $15,000, followed by Sarah at $9,000 and Angelus at $4,600. The category for the final round was “Countries with Space Programs,” and the clue pertained to the launch of the first satellite, Asterix, in 1965. All three contestants provided the correct response: What is France? In a strategic move, Weckiai wagered just enough to secure her victory, finishing with a two-day total of $28,000.
The final scores reflected a closely contested game, with Weckiai Rannila claiming first place at $18,001, followed by Sarah Hardy at $17,999, and Angelus Kocoshis at $4,600.
