19-year-old scoops £120,000 via lottery ticket

A teenage data analyst has enjoyed a huge slice of beginner's luck - after scooping £120,000 with his first ever lottery ticket.

Sam Lawton, 19, was having a soak in the bath when he decided to play the National Lottery for the first time last Tuesday (12/8).

And we was left gobsmacked after matching the winning numbers 3, 20, 26, 27 and 32 on the new Set for Life lottery game.

Sam purchased the ticket via an online mobile phone app for £1.50 and is now celebrating landing a cool £10,000 for the next 12 months.
