There were two millionaire winners in Tuesday’s drawing, both from South Carolina. Both hit the five white balls and missed the gold Mega Ball. One of them won $1 million, while the other won $2 million because they paid an extra $1 for the Megaplier.

Tuesday’s drawing had a total of 1,202,189 winning tickets, 30 of which matched four white balls plus the Mega Ball to win the $10,000 third prize. Ten of those third prize tickets were worth $20,000 each, as they purchased the Megaplier.
