One Ticket Wins Lotto Jackpot Outright
Updated: Monday 23rd July 2018
One ticket won the Lotto jackpot outright last Saturday night, instantly making its owner £16,976,182 richer than they had been before the draw. The Lotto results which brought about this financial transformation on Saturday 9 September were 04, 07, 13, 49, 56 and 58, and the Bonus Ball number was 06.
That Bonus Ball proved very useful for one player who also matched five main numbers to win a second tier prize worth £80,295. More than 1.26 million prizes were won across the lower tiers, and the combined value of all Lotto prizes won on Saturday exceeded £20.47 million.
That figure doesn’t even include the £1 million prize that was landed by the player who matched the winning Lotto Millionaire Raffle code, which was JADE 7846 7490. Another 20 prizes of £20,000 each were also won by players in the Lotto Raffle draw, and the full list of winning codes for that can be found on our Lotto Results page.
Last weekend's jackpot win was the largest since Saturday 24 June, when one ticket scooped an even bigger £21.38 million. The biggest jackpot of the year so far was delivered – albeit indirectly – on Wednesday 24 May, when a top prize of £25.5 million was rolled down and shared between two winners at the second tier.
We congratulate the player who landed the latest Lotto jackpot, and we look forward to finding out whether or not he or she (or they, in the case of it being a lottery syndicate) will decide to go public. In the meantime, the jackpot for the next Lotto game this Wednesday has been reset, and will give midweek players the chance to win around £1.9 million.
Before we get to that game, the EuroMillions draw this Tuesday 12 September will offer a double rollover jackpot worth an estimated £33 million. Choose your numbers today to give yourself a chance of making your lottery dreams come true, and good luck!
