Amy Schneider’s Masters’ Tournament Selection Sparks Backlash From Fans

The buzz in the Jeopardy! world is all about Amy Schneider taking up that last spot in the upcoming Tournament of Champions. Yep, you heard it right—Amy Schneider, the reigning champion from the 2022 Tournament of Champions, is back in the spotlight. But not everyone is excited about this announcement.

The big announcement came during the Inside Jeopardy Live! Event in New York City, where they revealed the star-filled line-up for the Masters.

Alongside Amy, we’ve got James Holzhauer, Matt Amodio, Mattea Roach, Yogesh Raut, and Victoria Groce. The show will be airing prime-time on ABC starting May 1.

Some fans aren’t too thrilled about Amy making a comeback. Although she is a crowd favorite, with a 40-game winning streak to boast of. But after she landed as the runner-up in the just-completed Jeopardy! Invitational Tournament (JIT!) many believe that should have disqualified her from the Masters. On the Jeopardy! Reddit forum, many came to speak their opinions.

“Honestly not a fan of this decision,” wrote one fan on the Jeopardy! Reddit forum. “We just saw her in JIT, what’s the point if she can lose that and just move on anyways.”

“I agree with this take,” replied another. “I love watching Amy play Jeopardy and I’ve enjoyed all the tournament play, but she did not finish in the top three of Masters last year and she did not win the JIT this year, so my question is why her? Why not Andrew [He] or Sam [Buttrey] or Cris [Pannullo] or Sam [Kavanaugh] or anyone else who didn’t do those things either?”

“Does seem kind of dumb. Why was she even competing in JIT if she had a spot in regardless?” asked one commenter.

Then there’s the argument that all of this just undermines the integrity of the game. Another wrote, “They should have just announced top 2 from JIT are moving on or made the tournament structured differently to include two players from the JIT into Masters.”

“Obligatory ‘Amy is great, but’… This is an awful choice,” said one fan. “Completely invalidates the last tournament.”

“The producers pick should have been a person who we would never have seen otherwise like Brad [Rutter] or The Beast [Mark Labbett] or someone else we haven’t seen on Jeopardy recently,” added another.

“I don’t have the stats in front of me, but we’ve seen Amy play dozens of games in the last year and I personally would like to see someone else get a shot.”

Another wrote, “The “sport” of Jeopardy: You can lose two opportunities to get into the Masters and be invited anyway! Mind boggling decision.”

“If the producers had their way every single episode of Jeopardy would just be three Amy Schneiders competing against each other,” said another commenter.
