A single ticket from NSW has won Thursday night’s entire $100m Powerball draw and earned a lucky lotto player a seat in an exclusive club.

Thursday’s massive jackpot, Powerball’s richest for 2025, has been won by just one entry fortunate enough to match all eight winning numbers.

The winning numbers for Powerball draws #1517 are: 28, 10, 3, 16, 31, 14 and 21. The Powerball is 6.

Six players took home $282,000 each in division two, while 187 players scored $11,200 in division three.

If you chose not to buy a ticket, chances are you know someone who did because up to half of all Australian adults were tipped to try their luck.

Thursday’s winner instantly rockets to equal third in terms of most lucrative individual lottery wins in Australian history.

The last time Powerball reached $100m heights was in November.

Just six Australians know exactly how it feels to win a Powerball prize of $100 million or more.

“From quiet country towns to bustling city streets, we’ve seen life-changing wins happen to anyone in the most unexpected places. That’s the beauty of Powerball,” The Lott spokesperson Anna Hobdell said earlier this week.

“The $100 million club is growing, and maybe we’ll welcome a new member this Thursday.”
