WESTERN Australia has welcomed another division one Lotto winner, with one lucky punter grabbing a $16.6 million share of Tuesday night’s $50 million OzLotto jackpot.

The winning ticket was sold at The Lucky Charm Gwelup and the others from Queensland and New South Wales.

Lotterywest spokesperson Chloe Lawler said tonight’s win was the largest in WA for the year, overtaking two $15 million Lotto prizes won earlier in 2017.

“Tonight’s win contributes to the State’s fast growing tally of division one Lotto winners which has now reached 36 so far this year,” Ms Lawler said.

“These winners alone have now shared in over $90 million in prize money.

“I’m certainly looking forward to welcoming our newest multimillionaire to the Lotterywest winner’s room sometime soon.”

Over 141,000 other lucky locals picked up a prize in tonight’s OzLotto jackpot, including one division two winning ticket worth almost $47,000 that was sold at Subiaco Square Lottery Centre.

Tonight’s winning OzLotto numbers were: 2, 45, 29, 7, 23, 19 and 21
