Included are all players who have won three or more games and made their last appearance between 23 November 2015 and 3 November 2017, covering 395 regular-play games, as well as players who qualify automatically by virtue of tournament victories (CC = College Championship, TT = Teachers Tournament). The tournament aired from 6 to 17 November 2017.
Cindy Stowell passed away prior to the airing of her Jeopardy! appearance; she qualified for, and would have appeared in, this Tournament of Champions. The participating contestants wore dark blue ribbons (the color of colon cancer awareness) in Cindy's honor; Jason Sterlacci conceived of that most appropriate tribute.
The table is sortable; clicking on a column's header cell will sort in ascending order; clicking again reverses the order. Each player's name also links to his or her J! Archive player profile.
