Australian Powerball jackpot reaches $100 million after five rollovers
Australia’s Powerball jackpot reached $100 million for Thursday night’s draw after the top prize went unclaimed for five consecutive weeks. The result matters because a sole winner would receive one of the country’s largest lottery prizes on record.
The winning numbers in draw 1587 were 14, 24, 15, 3, 27, 32 and 30, with Powerball number 16. Up to half of Australian adults were expected to have bought tickets, and this was only the 13th time in Powerball’s 30-year history that its jackpot reached nine figures. A separate $100 million prize from June 2025 remains unclaimed; its winning ticket was bought at Bondi Junction Newsagency in Sydney.

Australian Powerball is a national lottery in which players choose numbers and a separate Powerball number. The jackpot is awarded when a ticket matches the required numbers; if no ticket wins the top prize, the jackpot rolls over to a later draw.
The lottery is run in Australia and has been operating for about 30 years. Its jackpots are shared among any tickets that match the winning combination, so a prize can go to one person or several.
A past $100 million prize from June 2025 remains unclaimed, and the winning ticket was sold at a newsagency in Bondi Junction, Sydney. This means a large prize can remain unpaid if its holder has not come forward.
