UK player scoops more than £15 million in Euromillions

A UK player has won £15.2 million in the Euromillions draw.

It comes just a few days after another UK player scooped £16.5 million in a shared prize with a French player.

Camelot's Andy Carter, the senior winners’ adviser, said: “It’s great news for a UK ticket-holder who has scooped tonight’s £15.2million EuroMillions jackpot.

“Players are urged to check their tickets online to see if they are one of The National Lottery’s latest big winners – The National Lottery results are always available on the website and via the National Lottery App.”

The winner has 180 days to claim their prize - giving them until November 25 this year.

Euromillions, a lottery that runs across nine European countries including the UK, runs every Tuesday and Friday night and requires seven correct numbers for a win.

Next Tuesday's jackpot is estimated at around £15 million.
