Tonight’s Wheel of Fortune Recap Monday, 27 April 2026
On Wheel of Fortune airing April 27, 2026, Drew opened the game by solving the $1,000 Toss-Up, ISLAND COVE. Brad answered right on the $2,000 Toss-Up with RUNNING ON A TREADMILL, setting up a strong start before the main rounds began.
Brad took control in the first main round with the memorable solve SPRING IS IN THE AIR CONDITIONING, a result worth $10,900 and a prize. Drew answered back in the next round by solving GONDOLA RIDE THROUGH VENICE, picking up $12,600 and a prize of his own to move into the lead at that point.
The Pet Peeve round shifted momentum again. After Veronica made progress but hit Bankrupt, Brad stepped in and solved HOGGING THE ARMREST. That gave him a big jump on the scoreboard and put him back in front heading into the closing stages of the game.
In the Triple Toss-Ups, Veronica missed the first one, and Drew correctly solved STANDING AT THE DOOR. Brad then got the second with OPENING THE DOOR, and Veronica took the third by solving WINNING THE DOOR PRIZE. In the Speed-Up, Brad sealed the victory with HERE YOU COME AGAIN, finishing the night with $33,999 in cash and tour winnings.
That made Brad the winner of the April 27, 2026 episode of Wheel of Fortune. He advanced to the Bonus Round, chose Thing, and completed the final puzzle as PROVEN FACT. Brad won the bonus round and added $45,000, bringing his total for the episode to $78,999 in cash and tour winnings.
