It was a nail biter for Mattea Roach on Jeopardy! last night as she trailed for most of the game.
The 23-year-old was behind heading into Final Jeopardy! but she answered the clue correctly and her opponent did not.
It gave her the win and 23 straight victories.

She made waves on social media earlier in the day when she was spotted in Cape Breton.

Many thought it might have been the end of her magical run.
Roach has now won $560,000 US.
