The winning ticket matched all five numbers drawn: 17, 20, 21, 33, 34.
According to iThuba, the official lottery operator, the total jackpot was estimated at R500,000.00, and only one player succeeded in claiming the top prize by correctly picking all five numbers.
This kind of win is rare, as most draws usually have no jackpot winners or multiple people sharing the prize.

For those unfamiliar with how the Daily Lotto works, it is a daily draw game where players choose five numbers from a pool of 1 to 36. All five numbers must match the numbers drawn to win the jackpot. Lower-tier prizes are awarded for matching two, three, or four numbers.
To play, participants can buy a ticket at any authorised retailer or online through the National Lottery website or banking apps. Each entry costs R3, and draws take place every evening around 9 p.m.
iThuba encourages all players to check their tickets as soon as possible. Prizes must be claimed within 365 days from the draw date, or they will be forfeited.
Winners of R2,000 or less can claim their money at retail outlets, while bigger prizes require claims at authorised payment centres or regional lottery offices.
iThuba also reminds players to play responsibly. Lottery games are open to South African residents aged 18 and older.
