Kathy Davis is a Jeopardy contestant appearing on the longest-running quiz game show this season. Her episode airs on Tuesday 9 July 2024.

The contestants are instead given general knowledge clues in the form of answers and they must identify the person, place, thing, or idea that the clue describes, phrasing each response in the form of a question.
