After one of the most historic runs in Jeopardy! history, Amy Schneider could not repeat her success in the Jeopardy! Masters tournament. She was eliminated on the May 17 episode as she failed to amass enough points to be one of the four that advanced to the semifinals. One of the reasons for that was she often ran into the buzzsaw that is James Holzhauer.
Holzhauer has been absolutely dominating the competition, which is no small feat since all the contestants (Schneider, Matt Amodio, Sam Butrrey, Andrew He and Mattea Roach) are some of the best players Jeopardy! has ever seen. Still, Holzhauer won six out of the seven games he played (and just lost the seventh in a tight game with Amodio), often in blowout fashion that allowed him to not even answer Final Jeopardy questions seriously most of the time, often poking fun at host Ken Jennings.
