"Jeopardy!" champion Amy Schneider has been defeated after a 40-game winning streak. On Wednesday's episode Schneider, an engineering manager from Oakland, California, lost to Rhone Talsma, a Chicago librarian, just days after becoming the quiz show's second all-time winner Monday. Schneider trails only Ken Jennings, winner of the game show's 2020 Greatest of All Time tournament and current host of the syndicated quiz show. Jennings holds the record of most consecutive games with 74, which he set in 2004. Now the most successful woman in the show's history, Schneider has earned a place in the quiz show's Hall of Fame and will play in the next Tournament of Champions.
