‘Jeopardy! Masters’ Has Officially Moved Beyond James Holzhauer — Here’s the Champion Who’s Actually Redefining the Game

For the second year in a row, Jeopardy! legend James Holzhauer is absent from the Masters spotlight — but don’t worry, someone else has taken the reins. Yogesh Raut, the unapologetic trivia assassin and last year’s runner-up, has stepped into Holzhauer’s shoes—and smashed right through them. With high-risk wagers, viral buzzer antics, and a flair for villainy, Raut is turning this year’s Masters tournament into must-see TV currently airing on ABC.
