Mega Millions has announced the winner of its massive jackpot prize for Tuesday, shortly after unveiling the winning numbers.
The numbers announced were 13, 19, 20, 32 and 33, with the Megaplier of 14.
The prize is a whopping $1.58bn – a record high for the lottery that counts among the largest-ever draws in American lottery history.
Mega Millions has since announced that a player from Neptune Beach, Florida won its top prize with a ticket purchased at a Publix supermarket. The winner’s name has not been disclosed.
The player has two options for collecting their massive windfall: spread out the full amount in annual payments over 29 years, or receive a lump sum payment in the amount of about $783m.
The jackpot had climbed to $1.58bn after no tickets matched all six winning numbers in Friday’s draw.
The chances of a player matching all six numbers are exceptionally rare. The odds, in fact, are just one in 302.6 million.
The winner can now claim their prize as part of annual payments or as a lump sum cash payment.
