No one matched the jackpot earlier in the week, meaning the prize fund is rolled over. One UK player came close on Tuesday, winning £680,767 for matching five numbers and one Lucky Star. The massive £201 million jackpot on Friday would make it amongst the largest in history. The record – a staggering £213 million – was won in June. According to the National Lottery, there is a 1 in 139 million chance of winning the top prize, which increases as the jackpot grows larger and more people try their hand.

EuroMillions winner comes forward to claim £208m jackpot
A record-breaking EuroMillions jackpot winner from Ireland has officially come forward to claim their prize, a spokeswoman for The National Lottery has confirmed. The winner, who purchased the ticket in a retail outlet in Co Cork, has scooped an astonishing €250 million and marks the largest ever EuroMillions win in Irish history. This is also the 18th time the jackpot has been claimed by an Irish player. The winning numbers from Tuesday's draw were 13, 22, 23, 44 and 49, with lucky stars 3 and 5. Earlier in the week, Cian Murphy, chief executive of the Irish National Lottery, had offered advice to the then-unidentified winner, urging them to "stay calm" as the "massive" win could come as a shock. The €250 million sum, equivalent to approximately £208 million, represents the maximum possible EuroMillions jackpot, which is capped once it reaches this monumental figure. This jackpot reached the maximum amount on 6 June after rolling over several times. In total, more than 92,000 players in Ireland won prizes in the EuroMillions and Plus games. The last Irish winner of the EuroMillions jackpot was in February 2022, when a person won 30.9 million euro with a quick pick ticket they purchased at a service station in Ballina, Co Tipperary.
