Winner of £123million EuroMillions has still not claimed prize 5 days after win

The winner of a £123million EuroMillions jackpot has still not come forward to claim the huge jackpot - five days after the huge win.

A Camelot spokesman said they were still waiting for the lucky punter to make their claim.

One UK player - or syndicate - has won the £123,458,008 jackpot by matching all five numbers and two lucky stars.

The ticket holder has won the third biggest ever lottery win in the UK - and it is the fourth jackpot winner on EuroMillions in the UK this year.

The winning numbers in Tuesday night's draw were 25, 27, 39, 42 and 46 and the two lucky stars were 11 and 12.

Also in Tuesday night's draw three UK players won £137,056.70 for matching five numbers and one of the lucky stars.

The National Lottery revealed the huge £123million EuroMillions jackpot was won by a ticket holder in the UK on Wednesday.

A spokesman for the National Lottery said the win put the ticket-holder in third place among the biggest ever lottery wins in the UK.

Players across the country were being urged to check their tickets to see if they can claim the massive prize.

Andy Carter, senior winners' adviser at The National Lottery, said, "This year has been truly incredible for UK EuroMillions players - with four jackpot winners so far on these shores.

"Patrick and Frances Connolly from Northern Ireland won the £114.9 million EuroMillions jackpot in the draw on New Year's Day, Ade Goodchild banked £71 million in March and an anonymous ticket-holder bagged £35.2 million in April."

The current record holders for the biggest ever lottery win are Colin and Chris Weir, from Largs in North Ayrshire, Scotland, who won £161million in 2011.

The couple, who made a £1million donation to the SNP , announced they were divorcing in April.

Adrian and Gillian Bayford, from Suffolk, took home more than £148 million in August 2012. They separated a year later.
