A lone bettor from Laguna province has won the Lotto 6/42 jackpot worth ₱57,645,619.60 in the draw held on Thursday night, July 2, 2026, according to the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO).
The agency confirmed that the winning ticket matched the complete winning combination for the said draw, making the bettor the sole jackpot winner for this round.
Details released by PCSO indicate that the ticket was purchased within Laguna, though the exact location of the outlet and the identity of the winner have not been publicly disclosed for security and privacy reasons.Meanwhile, the same draw also featured the Super Lotto 6/49 game, which did not produce any jackpot winner.The winning combination for that draw was 23-22-38-05-48-44, with the prize pool reaching approximately ₱51.97 million.
Since no bettor successfully matched all six numbers, the jackpot will roll over and continue to increase in the next draw, potentially attracting more participants.
The PCSO regularly conducts lottery draws as part of its fundraising efforts for health programs, medical assistance, and charitable initiatives across the Philippines.
Jackpot wins such as this one highlight the life-changing payouts that lottery games can deliver, while also contributing to government social services through ticket sales.Lotto enthusiasts are expected to remain active in upcoming draws, especially as rollover jackpots continue to grow in value.
