See the updated ‘Survivor’ winners list after Jeff Probst crowned the Season 46 champion

“Survivor” debuted on CBS as a summer program on May 31, 2000. Hosted by Jeff Probst since the very beginning, it is credited by many as starting the reality show craze that has been a major part of TV this century. After being on the air for two decades, 20 of the most iconic champions returned in Season 40’s “Winners at War” to compete in the first-ever all-winners season. Following a temporary delay due to Covid-19, the reality TV show continued with even more twists and turns, plus more diversity amongst its cast members. Tour our updated “Survivor” winners list above (or click here for direct access) that highlights everyone from Season 1’s Richard Hatch to the most recent.

Tony Vlachos and Sandra Diaz-Twine are affectionately known as the King and Queen of “Survivor” because they’re the only two-time winners in the show’s history. Tony prevailed in “Cagayan” (Season 28) and “Winners at War” (Season 40), while Sandra claimed victory in “Pearl Islands” (Season 7) and “Heroes vs. Villains” (Season 20).

To date, only 19 seasons of “Survivor” have been won by women while a whopping 27 seasons have been won by men. The oldest male winner is Season 17’s Bob Crowley (age 57) while the oldest female winner is Season 25’s Denise Stapley (age 41). At the opposite end of the spectrum, Season 21’s Jud “Fabio” Birza is the youngest male winner (age 21) while Season 6’s Jenna Morasca is the youngest female winner (age 22).

Has there ever been a tie at the final tribal council? Just once. In Season 36, Wendell Holland and Domenick Abbate each received five jury votes, so the third-place finisher, Laurel Johnson, had to cast the tie-breaking vote, and she chose Wendell.
