A Bonnyrigg woman is feeling “delighted and overwhelmed” after checking her Saturday Lotto ticket today and discovering she won division one in the weekend’s draw.

The Sydney resident held one of the ten division one winning entries across Australia in Saturday Lotto draw 4055 on Saturday 30 May 2020. Each entry won a division one prize of $502,546.00.

Confirming her win with an official from the Lott this afternoon, the woman explained she’d just checked her ticket at the newsagency.

“Thank you very much,” she said.

“I feel quite overwhelmed but of course delighted.

“It’s hard to believe. I had no idea until I checked my ticket just now.

“It’s incredible!

“I have been playing regularly for quite some time now, so this is really exciting news.

“It’s come at the best time with everything going on at the moment. It really has given me something to celebrate.”

“I know I’ll really enjoy it, that’s for sure.”
