(CULVER CITY, CA) - An Indiana native is storming up the all-time "Jeopardy!" leaderboard with a winning streak that's turning heads nationwide.
Twenty-seven-year-old Harrison Whitaker of Terre Haute hit "super-champion" status after his 10th win last Monday -- a milestone reached by only 19 players in the show's history. And he's not slowing down. Whitaker kept winning straight through Thanksgiving week, pushing his streak to 14 games and tying him for 13th place on the all-time list. He's now just one win behind another Hoosier standout -- Purdue archivist Adriana Harmeyer, who won 15 straight games last year and took home more than $351,000. Whitaker has already earned nearly $374,000 and returns to the "Jeopardy!" stage on Monday, December 1st to keep his run alive.
