A winning lottery ticket worth $198 million was bought in Hendersonville, Tennessee, lottery officials announced Sunday.

The Powerball numbers were pulled Saturday night, and the jackpot winner’s ticket matched all six numbers. Lottery officials have not said where exactly the ticket was purchased. As of Sunday afternoon, the winner had not yet come forward.

It was the seventh time that someone in Tennessee has purchased a ticket with all matching numbers, according to the Tennessee Lottery. Powerball is played across multiple states.

Officials say the winner should sign the back of the ticket, store it somewhere secure, talk with a financial adviser and call the lottery’s Nashville headquarters. The winner has six months to claim the prize.
