Tarneit man’s second win this year
A Tarneit man is celebrating his second division one win this year, taking home $1 million in Friday night’s Weekday Windfall draw.
The Wyndham resident held the only division one winning entry nationally in draw 4583, drawn on 8 August 2025.
Still stunned by the win, he revealed it happened by accident.
“It was such a coincidence because I originally meant to buy a ticket for the Monday draw, as that’s what I usually do, but I realised that I accidentally got a ticket into Friday’s draw. Isn’t that crazy?” he said.
Earlier this year, he won $60,000 in a division one syndicate.
“My parents are into astrology, so I might need to pull up my birth chart and they can tell me if it was in the stars,” he said. “I’m just a middle-income earner with a regular job, so getting this is life-changing.”
The winner said he and his wife plan to pay off their mortgage and give back to help others.
His winning 30-game entry was purchased via The Lott app.
The winning numbers in Weekday Windfall draw 4583 were 13, 9, 44, 29, 1 and 34, with supplementary numbers 41 and 28. There was only one division one winning entry in the draw.
The Lott has recorded 267 division one wins so far in 2025, with 68 of those in NSW. In 2024, Weekday Windfall created 102 millionaires across Australia.
