Tuesday night, Christina Derevjanik from Connecticut made history on “Wheel of Fortune”, becoming only the fifth contestant ever to claim the show’s coveted $1 million prize. And she did it with remarkable ease.
Securing the Million-Dollar Wedge
Derevjanik had already landed the $1 million wedge during regular play, putting her on track for a life-changing payday. Before the bonus round, she joked about handing in her two weeks’ notice at her marketing job if she hit the jackpot.
The Bonus Round Moment
The bonus puzzle category was “Living Things.” With the standard letters R, S, T, L, N, and E revealed, Derevjanik chose M, C, F, and A. These letters filled in just enough blanks to make the answer clear.
As host Ryan Seacrest started the countdown, Derevjanik didn’t hesitate. She confidently shouted the correct answer: “Pack of coyotes.”
