Overview
- Denison edged out Chris Kearney and Molly Hackett on March 11, finishing Final Jeopardy with $8,601 after all three contestants missed the clue on a Mojave Desert military base.
- He attempted a true Daily Double early, dropped to $0 on a miss, then recovered to lead into Final Jeopardy and close out the victory.
- His four-day total stands at $99,400, with host Ken Jennings noting a fifth win would secure a Tournament of Champions berth.
- The run follows a near miss of James Holzhauer’s two-day mark, as Denison posted $81,798 after two games—just $808 shy of Holzhauer’s $82,606.
- He has leaned on aggressive Daily Double play and sharp buzzer timing, drawing praise from earlier opponent Jonathan Rosales as “an absolute beast on the buzzer.”
