The winning numbers were 14, 15, 19, 20, 36 and 47. The additional number was 10.
The winning ticket was sold at the NTUC FairPrice outlet in Tiong Bahru Plaza.
The winner took home the Group 1 jackpot prize of $8,042,310.
The previous single largest best was $6.52 million in May 2007, according to Singapore Pools.
