Wheel of Fortune’ Contestant Solve
Delinda Rood of Rosemount, Minnesota, delivered a memorable
performance on the November 4 episode of Wheel of Fortune, finishing with $65,650 after a lightning-fast Bonus Round solve.
She started slowly, missing the first toss-up, “My Game Face,”
but quickly rebounded by solving “Practical Joker” and earning $2,000.
Despite strong competition — including a Norway trip win and the One Million Dollar Wedge claimed by her opponents — Rood steadily pulled ahead.
She solved key puzzles like “Spoil Yourself At The Spa,” showing strong pattern recognition and consistency.
By the end of regular play, she had secured $20,650 and advanced to the Bonus Round.
Choosing the category “Around the House,” Rood stunned the studio by instantly solving “Warm Quilt.”
The correct answer earned her an additional $45,000, bringing her total to $65,650.
Host Ryan Seacrest celebrated as the audience erupted, marking the moment as one of the episode’s highlights.
