James Holzhauer’s ‘Jeopardy!’ rematch against Emma Boettcher will have to wait

The Jeopardy! rematch everyone has been waiting isn’t happening quite yet.

Every since University of Chicago librarian Emma Boettcher ended James Holzhauer’s 32-game winning streak (and the sports gambler from Las Vegas classily congratulated her), fans of the game show have been waiting for the Tournament of Champions to see if they could get through the field and face each other at some point on their way to finals.

Unfortunately, we’re going to have to wait one more round to see if it’s going to happen.

Per the Jeopardy! official site, Boettcher will play against Dhruv Gaur and Kyle Jones on Monday, Nov. 11. Holzhauer gets sports industry consultant Steven Grade and Rachel Lindgren on Tuesday. There’s one more semifinal on Wednesday to decide the third player in the final, so if Boettcher and Holzhauer win their games, it won’t be a complete one-on-one head-to-head battle.

So let’s see what happens this week. If so, get your popcorn (and buzzers) ready.
