Powerball results: Sydney woman does the unthinkable as she wins $22million prize

A Sydney woman has come forward to claim her $22million Lotto prize - and told everyone at work shortly after.

She held the only division one winning entry nationally in Powerball draw 1479, drawn Thursday, and pocketed a whopping $22,207,849.80.

Officials from The Lott reached the hard-working mother just moments after she checked her ticket.

"I can't believe it. I saw I had a win, and I thought it was just $11, then I scrolled down and realised I won the whole thing.

"I just got to work, and I couldn't help but yell out to everyone I won the $20 million.

'One of the guys said, you're on the shout now.

'I don't know how I'll be able to focus on the rest of the day. Luckily my day isn't too busy.

'This does so much for me. Buying a house and helping my family is my main priority but I'd love to do some travel too.'

The winning numbers were 32, 12, 4, 9, 10, 24 and 7. The all-important Powerball number was 15.
