PowerBall Jackpot Hits R51 Million in July 4 Draw
Winning Numbers and Jackpot Details
South African lottery fans woke up to a big surprise on Friday, July 4, 2025. The PowerBall draw produced the numbers 15, 16, 22, 30, 32 and the PowerBall ball 07, locking in a guaranteed jackpot of R51 million. That’s a massive payout waiting for anyone who matched the six numbers.
Over in the PowerBall Plus draw, the numbers were 09, 14, 28, 39, 49 with a PowerBall of 10. The operator estimated the jackpot at R3 million, but the official tally showed R2,286,265.31 – a roll‑over because no ticket hit the winning combo.
Both draws were run by ITHUBA, the official National Lottery operator, and the results were posted on their social channels within minutes of the 9 pm draw. The lottery’s timing is strict: outlets stop taking tickets at 8:30 pm, giving the system enough time to lock in the final numbers.
