A Final Jeopardy! question about Phil Mickelson proved too difficult for the contestants featured on Friday's episode of the game show.
All three contestants failed to identify the 44-time PGA Tour winner when asked to name the oldest active sportsman on Forbes' 2020 list of the world's highest-paid athletes. The contestants responded with "Who is Jagr," "Who is Phil n," and "Who is Mr. Magoo."
Mickelson, who ranked 25th on Forbes' list with $40.8 million in earnings, was admittedly disappointed by the responses.
Just when I think I’ve arrived ( I was the answer to tonight’s final Jeopardy question) I realize I still have a ways to go (they all got it wrong ):
