Stat Links for Season 37 and 38 Returning Players
Season 37 Second Chance and Season 37/38 Champion's Wildcard announced
I haven’t listened yet - I am still far behind on every podcast following my May-July travel - so I am relying on The Jeopardy! Fan’s summary for news announced on today’s Inside Jeopardy! episode. (Thanks, Andy!) Season 40 will open with a Season 37 Second Chance competition and a Season 37/38 Champion’s Wildcard. Specific participants are not announced yet, but I am posting links to J!ometry pages covering the possible players, with more specific pages to come as the show announces attendance.
Season 37 - eligible for Second Chance - This includes some players from the second half of S37 who have already competed in Second Chance as part of the 2022 tournament cycle.
Season 37/38 eligible for Champion's Wildcard - This includes all players who won one, two, or three games in season 37 or 38. All four-game winners and above have already competed in either the 2021 or 2022 Tournament of Champions if possible. (Though Zach Newkirk does sneak into the listing anyway as he competed in both seasons 36 and 37, and Luigi de Guzman gets in for bridging 38 and 39. For similar reasons, Morgan Wilbanks has only some games reflected.)
Statistics are as full for most players as box scores were not introduced until halfway through season 38.
