A Sydney woman felt like she’d ‘walked into the light at the end of a tunnel’ after winning millions in the Saturday Lotto.

The Burwood, inner-west Sydney, woman held one of the two division one winning entries in Saturday’s Lotto draw 4421 and took home a grand prize of $2,527,471.

‘Oh my god, I can’t speak!,’ the woman said when an official from The Lott confirmed her win.

‘It’s been such a rough few years for me and this is going to change everything.

‘It really does feel like I’ve come to the end of a long tunnel and walked into the light.

‘Oh my god. I’m over the moon. I can’t even think about anything I’m in so much shock.’

The woman said the win would be life changing for her and her family.
