As a seasoned Jeopardy! fan with over two decades of watching under my belt, I must say that the September 20, 2024, episode was one for the books. High school teacher Jen Feldman’s back-to-back wins were truly inspiring, and her safe bet strategy in the Final Jeopardy round was a masterclass in risk management.

Final Jeopardy Question for September 20
On September 20, 2024, the last question in Jeopardy will be found under the category “Island Chains.” The hint given for this question is:
Known after a Spanish queen, this group of Pacific islands served as the launching pad for renowned expeditions in 1960 and 2012.
As is customary, the solution to this puzzle is provided at the conclusion of this piece to allow you an opportunity to solve it yourself.
Final Jeopardy Wagers and Winner for September 20
Jen triumphed once more consecutively, as there were no correct answers given for the final round of Jeopardy.
Initially holding $15,100, Jen cautiously placed a bet of $1,050, which left her with a grand total of $14,050 following an incorrect guess of “Isabella.” On the other hand, Santhosh wagered his entire amount, $9,400, on the same island guess. Unfortunately for him, he ended up in third place with no remaining funds.
Alongside her initial stake of $7,000, Sarah held a secure wager amounting to only $1,000. However, she wagered on the Antilles, which unfortunately didn’t work out, causing her total to drop to $6,000. This left her in the second position.
Final Jeopardy Answer for September 20
The correct answer for Final Jeopardy on September 20, 2024 is “What are the Mariana Islands?”
Due to the numerous island groups scattered across the vast Pacific Ocean known as Oceania, pinpointing the specific chain mentioned in the clue can be quite challenging. To make matters more complex, countries within this region are often less familiar compared to others. The vital clue we have is that the island chain bears the name of a Spanish queen – Mariana of Austria. Interestingly, it was the Mariana Islands that Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan initially discovered in the Pacific Ocean during the early 16th century.
In 1960 and 2012, expeditions were conducted to Challenger Deep – the deepest part of the ocean known so far. Situated at the southern tip of the Mariana Trench, this location was one possible answer for those participating in the exploration contest.
