Tournament of Champions[]
In the first quarterfinal game, he went up against Mark Eckard and Rick Knutsen. Despite getting none of his questions wrong, he struggled to catch up to Mark throughout the entire game. However, his total of $11,500 was enough to make him a wildcard semifinalist.
In the first semifinal game, he went up against Ryan Moore and Tad Carithers. A risky DD redeemed himself in the latter half of the DJ! round however it just wouldn't be enough as even though he got his FJ! response right, he lost to Tad by a margin of $100.
Million Dollar Masters[]
In the fifth quarterfinal game, he went up against India Cooper and Robin Carroll. Just like last time, Babu found his footing after a rough Jeopardy round, but a big DD from India made it a lock for her. Not even hin being the only person to get his FJ! question right made him catch up to her.
Ultimate Tournament of Champions[]
In the third game of Round One matchups, he went up against Teen Tournament champion Melissa Seal and Arthur Phillips. Performance wise, this was Babu's best game yet (getting twenty one questions right (including 2 DD's) and none wrong), however, a contraversial puncuation error in FJ! cost him almost half his money, just missing out on Round Two by yet another $100 margin.
Battle of the Decades[]
In the first game of 1990's week, he went up against Rachael Schwartz and Eddie Timanus. Babu did not have a good game here, struggling to earn more than $2,000. Even a triple-stumper FJ! was more than enough to not send him to the quarterfinals.
