'Amazing Race' crowns Jason and Amy winners

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 9 (UPI) -- Former Miss Rhode Island USA Amy Diaz and boyfriend Jason Case won the 23rd edition of the globe-trotting game show "The Amazing Race."

Case, 33, and Diaz, 29, won the $1 million grand prize on Sunday's season finale.

Phil Keoghan is the host of the show, which pits 11 teams, each comprised of two members, against each other on a trek around the world for approximately 25 days. At every destination, each team must compete in a series of challenges, some mental and some physical, and only when the tasks are completed do they learn of their next location, CBS said in a synopsis on its website.
