(Undated) — A Wheel of Fortune contestant who got the right answer on the show’s Bonus Round but didn’t get the prize, an Audi Q3, is getting a car after all. On Tuesday’s show, Charlene Rubush of Oakland, California came up with the hidden phrase, “Choosing the right word.” She first said, “choosing the right card,” then correctly said, “word.” But host Pat Sajak told her she needed to say the whole phrase correctly, so she didn’t get the car. Fans of the show were furious, but Audi is making things right. The German carmaker tweeted, “You’re a winner in our eyes, Charlene. Now, let’s get you a prize.”
