Single Ticket Wins £4 Million Lotto Jackpot

Single Ticket Wins £4 Million Lotto Jackpot

A fortunate winner claims the £4 million prize in the latest UK National Lottery draw.
In a recent draw of the UK National Lottery, a single ticketholder emerged as the fortunate winner of Saturday's £4,004,523 Lotto jackpot.

The winner successfully matched all six main numbers, allowing them to claim the entire jackpot amount.

The numbers for this draw were 02, 13, 24, 29, 32, 39, and the bonus number was 46. The draw was conducted using set of balls 2 and draw machine Lancelot.

This win marks the third instance in 2025 where the £4 million jackpot has been claimed.

Previously, a win was recorded on January 11, with another on January 4, when a 20-year-old winner from Carlisle, James Clarkson, won a £7.5 million jackpot.

The series of wins has been characterized by Andy Carter, senior winners’ advisor at Allwyn, as an exciting start to the year.

He encouraged participants to check their tickets and contact the National Lottery if they believe they have won.

In the same draw, 85 participants each won £1,750 by matching five of the six numbers.

However, no tickets matched five numbers and the bonus ball, which would have awarded a £1 million prize.

Alongside the main Lotto draw, there was the Lotto HotPicks game, which utilizes the same numbers as the primary Lotto draw.

In this instance, no participants matched all five numbers to win the £350,000 prize.

Four players, however, matched four numbers, securing a £13,000 prize each.

Additionally, the Thunderball draw resulted in no claimants of the £500,000 top prize.

The winning Thunderball numbers were 03, 20, 21, 27, 36, with the Thunderball being 08. Four participants each won £5,000 by matching five numbers.
