COLUMBIA, SC (April 15, 2022) – Saturday’s Powerball® jackpot is an estimated $325 million. A ticket worth $100,000 sold for Monday’s drawing has been claimed by a Lowcountry player.

The winner is still thinking about how close he came to winning a jackpot.

“I missed the big one by one number,” he said. “I still can’t believe it.”

His ticket, a quick pick, from the Speedway #4592 at 4326 Hwy. 17 in Murrells Inlet matched four of the first five numbers and the red Powerball number drawn on Monday, April 4 (2 - 32 - 39 - 46 - 69 and PB: 6) at odds of 1 in 913,129.

The winner, who does not wish to be identified, is shopping for a new car and still playing Powerball®.

For selling the claimed ticket, Speedway #4592 in Murrells Inlet received a commission of $1,000.

South Carolinians interested in taking a chance on Saturday’s drawing for a $325 million jackpot can purchase a ticket at most convenience stores and grocery stores in our state. Tickets are $2 and the odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 293 million.

Good luck, SC!
