Jeopardy! Masters season 3 has come to its thrilling conclusion, and fans are already looking forward to season 4. Jeopardy! Masters season 3 expanded from six contestants to nine, featuring the finalists from the three most prestigious Jeopardy! tournaments of 2025 and one legend of the game. They included the 2025 Jeopardy! Invitational Tournament winner Matt Amodio and runners-up Roger Craig and Juveria Zaheer; the 2025 Jeopardy! Tournament of Champions winner Neilesh Vinjamuri and runners-up Adriana Harmeyer and Isaac Hirsch; and the 2024 Jeopardy! Masters season 2 winner Victoria Groce and runner-up Yogesh Raut.

Because Jeopardy! Masters season 2 third-place finisher James Holzhauer declined his invitation, Brad Rutter, who's the all-time highest-money winner in Jeopardy! history, took his place. The Jeopardy! Masters season 3 competition was fierce, and ended with Yogesh winning and earning the $500,000 grand prize, $100,000 for his favorite charity, and the coveted Alex Trebek trophy. Juveria placed second, while Victoria placed third. Here's everything to know about their possible rematch in Jeopardy! Masters season 4.
