Indian-American teen wins $100K in Jeopardy college quiz contest
New York, April 21 (UITV/IANS) - Indian-American teenager, Dhruv Gaur, has won the $100,000 Jeopardy college quiz championship.
The first-year student at Ivy League Brown University emerged the champion on Friday in the two-day final round of the college edition of America's most popular quiz show televised nation-wide.
He faced another Indian-American, Rishab Jain, in the semi-final round on Wednesday before getting to the finals.
Gaur had scored a perfect score of 1,600 in the national-wide college entrance exam, Scholastic Aptitude Test.
About his plans for the winnings, a Jeopardy news release quoted him as saying, "I'm just going to save it until I need it for grad school or to pursue an opportunity I might really want in the future."
"My little brother is really interested in investing, so I'll give him some so he can give the stock market a go," he added.
Viraj Mehta, who came third in the 2017 edition, made news because either intentionally or accidentally he was seen flashing his middle finger -- an obscene gesture -- while being interviewed by the show's host Alext Trebek.
