A Powerball ticket sold in California has secured a $1.7 million win by matching all five winning numbers in the Saturday, December 23 draw, except for the Powerball number.
The California Lottery confirmed the close win, but the top jackpot went unclaimed, leading to a rollover for the next drawing scheduled on Monday, December 25. The upcoming jackpot is estimated to swell to $638 million.
The winning numbers for the draw were 9, 14, 17, 18, and 53, with a Powerball number of 6.
Notably, over 204,000 tickets won varying amounts, ranging from $4 to nearly $22,000, but specific details about the location of the $1.7 million ticket sold in California have not been disclosed by lottery officials.
