Tue Mar 11 02:40:00 UTC 2025: ## Memphis Jeopardy! Champion’s Reign Ends After Eight Wins
**MEMPHIS, TN** – Native Memphian Laura Faddah’s impressive eight-game winning streak on Jeopardy!, the longest of season 41, came to an end Monday. Faddah, who amassed a total of $95,599 in winnings, was defeated by Harvey Silikovitz. While Silikovitz dominated the main game, ultimately winning with $23,600, Faddah’s run solidified her spot in the 2026 Tournament of Champions. Though she missed the Final Jeopardy! question, along with Silikovitz, Faddah plans to use her winnings to fund her sons’ college educations. One of the highlights of Faddah’s run included correctly answering a Final Jeopardy! question about the founding of Memphis, a moment she described as surreal.
