'Jeopardy!' champ Mattea Roach wins 20th game (Toronto Star)

The Toronto tutor hailing from Nova Scotia extends her winning streak, with total winnings approaching $500000.

Roach says she’s happy to be part of a recent influx of LGBTQ contestants, albeit adding that the U.S. network tweets about her were clumsy. Halfway through “Double Jeopardy!” Roach had more than double the score of Ilgin in second place. Some American networks have seemingly latched on to Roach’s sexual orientation, referring to her as the “lesbian tutor” on the popular TV show. On Monday, Roach tied with Julia Collins for fifth longest winning streak in “Jeopardy!” history. The question: “In November 1864, John Wilkes Booth and his brother were fittingly part of this Shakespeare play.” By “Final Jeopardy!” Roach had a score of $16,200 — still almost double Ilgin’s score.

Jeopardy!, le plus ancien des jeux télévisés, est en pleine renaissance queer et Mattea Roach est fière d'en faire partie.

Sa biographie sur Twitter, qui se lit comme suit: «lesbienne, néo-écossaise, 19 fois championne de Jeopardy!», a été délibérément conçue pour satisfaire la curiosité des téléspectateurs. «Il y a eu beaucoup de représentation queer et trans dans la série ces derniers temps, a-t-elle remarqué. Les gens deviennent plus à l’aise de partager ces parties d’eux-mêmes dans une émission comme Jeopardy!, car la culture a changé.» Elle pensait que la publication était peut-être un peu maladroite ? «Je n’enseigne pas seulement aux lesbiennes ou n’enseigne pas aux gens comment être lesbienne», a-t-elle dit — mais sinon inoffensive, bien qu’elle ait aimé que les gens prennent sa défense.

'Jeopardy!' champ Mattea Roach reveals her online obsessions (Input)

The 23-year-old Canadian phenom loves internet puzzles (and hates online dating).

“I refuse to get a New York Times games subscription because I would waste too much time doing the crossword archive,” she says. When she was younger she was “ obsessed with atlases,” and in her teenage years, she spent many late nights watching Turner Classic Movies. She and a friend both have trouble sleeping and send each other late-night links. “I’ve never been a person to read something out of obligation, which is probably why my science knowledge is more shallow,” she says. In an essay, Schneider wrote that when people ask how she got so smart, she’s tempted to reply with “How does anyone know anything?” Roach, too, struggles to articulate exactly why she knows that Papeete is the chief port of Tahiti, but like usual, she has a pretty good guess. Input caught up with Roach to see how the Jeopardy! champ’s online habits stack up to ours.
