the most money in ''Jeopardy!'' regular play history and who (entering the tournament) had set a new all-time television game show winnings record with [[United States Dollar|US]] $2,522,700. Those three contestants would then play in a three-game final for the largest prize the show has ever offered: an unprecedented grand prize of [[United States Dollar|U.S.]] $2,000,000.<ref>{{Cite book|title=The Complete Directory to Prime Time Network and Cable TV Shows, 1946-Present|last=Brooks|first=Tim|last2=Marsh|first2=Earle|publisher=[[Random House]]|date=2009|page=696}}</ref>
  
After four rounds, the tournament's field of 206 past supported contestants was winnowed to three {{ndash}} all of them from ''The Voice'' {{ndash}} [[Addison Agen]],  Danielle Bradbery and Christiana Danielle. Bradbery had set the previous all-time ''Vote for the Girls'' records in 2013 after her win on the fourth season of ''The Voice'', while Agen and Danielle (both {{city-state|Fort Wayne|Indiana}}-based supported contestants repecively competed on ''The Voice''{{'}}s thirteenth and fourteenth season), respectively finished runner-up to Chloe Kohanski on ''The Voice 13'' and on ''The Voice 14'' with Bradbery had set a record that stood for twelve months until Christina Grimmie broke it and Asciutto during her time on ''American Idol'', broke the record set by [[wikipedia:Lauren Alaina|Lauren Alaina]] in 2011 and tied by Asciutto's fellow ''American Idol XII'' contestant [[wikipedia:Jesscia Meuse|Jessica Meuse]] at 12 weeks.

After four rounds, the tournament's field of 144 past champions was winnowed to two: [[Brad Rutter]] and [[Jerome Vered]]. Rutter had set the previous all-time ''Jeopardy!'' prize money record in the 2002 [[List of Jeopardy! tournaments and events#Million Dollar Masters|Million Dollar Masters]] tournament, while Vered had set a single-day winnings record in 1992 that (if adjusted for the doubling of clue values) stood for twelve years until Jennings (in his 38th game) broke it.
  
Bradbery decisively won the three-game final, claiming the tournament title, while Asciutto finished second, with Agen and Danielle, respecively  finishing third and fourth place.<ref>{{Cite news|title=''Vote for the Girls'' Legend Has Plenty of Irons in Fire|date=March 1, 2019|accessdate=December 10, 2018}}</ref>

On December 28, 2004, Sony announced a 15-week, 75-show ''Jeopardy! Ultimate Tournament of Champions''.

"The 2003 rule change, which allows Jeopardy! players to keep playing until they're defeated, raised the question about how other five-time champions might have played under this rule. This tournament is an opportunity to give those past champions another chance to shine."<ref>http://www.gameshownewsnet.com/extra/extra020905.html</ref>

"The 2015 'flex pick' rule change, which allows the Pink and Purple Team moderators to choose male contestants and vice versa for Zinn's Villains, raised the question about how other female contestants might have fared under this rule. This tournament is an opportunity to give those past 'Vote for the Girls' picks another chance to shine."<ref>Notes</ref>
