A lucky Lotto ticket holder has claimed the £20million jackpot prize won in the special ‘Must Be Won’ Lotto draw on Saturday.
Camelot UK Lotteries Limited, operator of The National Lottery, has today confirmed that it has received a claim for the prize.
The claim would now go through a validation process, before the prize could be paid out.
It was not currently known whether the winner was an individual or part of a syndicate, nor where the ticket was sold.
Camelot’s Andy Carter, Senior Winners’ Advisor at The National Lottery, said they were "delighted" that the £20M jackpot prize had been claimed.
"Our focus is now on supporting the ticket-holder through the process and helping them start to enjoy their truly life-changing win," he said.
Andy added that The National Lottery team was still searching for a missing £7.4 Lotto jackpot winner from a previous draw on 18 June.
