Jeopardy! International Championship

The Jeopardy! International Championship is sometimes referred to as "The Olympic Games of game shows", and invites Jeopardy! champions from all the countries that currently air a version of The Famous quiz show.

Format

This is a one-week tournament, with qualifying round games where the nine world champions appear in one of the three games under a "win or go home" format. The three qualifying round winners advance to The Two-game finals, where the champion with the highest cumulative 2-game score wins the tournament.

The International Tournament is rarely held.
