Tonight’s Wheel of Fortune Recap Thursday, 22 October 2026

On October 22, 2026, Olivia Bordenet won this episode of Wheel of Fortune with $25,598 in cash and a trip. Larry Lam finished with $6,650, while Diana Baker had $3,000. Olivia built a substantial advantage through puzzle solves in the main game, including a prize-puzzle victory that sent her to Australia.

The opening Wordplay puzzles included Diana's solve of ATHLETIC CLUB and Olivia's solve of CLUB SANDWICH. Olivia also identified “PINK PONY CLUB”, while no contestant solved JACK OF CLUBS in time. In the first main round, Larry solved SITTING IN THE FRONT ROW for $1,750.

Larry took the early lead in the Brainy crossword round by solving INSIGHTFUL, INTELLIGENT & WISE for $3,400. Olivia answered immediately in the prize puzzle round, solving ADRENALINE RUSH for $3,800 and an Overseas Adventure Travel trip to Australia.

Olivia continued her strong game in the Song Title round with “WE ARE FAMILY” and “WHERE IS MY HUSBAND!”, while Diana solved “MY GIRL” by the Temptations. The late Phrase round went to Larry, who solved THAT’S A BIG NUMBER for $1,500, but it was not enough to catch Olivia and change the Wheel of Fortune winner.

In the Bonus Round, Olivia selected the Phrase category. The bonus puzzle was THE WAIT IS OVER, but she was unable to solve it and did not win the $55,000 bonus prize.
