Linda Coyle won during the April 8, 2025 LOTTO MAX draw.
A Kingston woman is celebrating a $100,000 lottery win after saying “yes” to ENCORE.
Linda Coyle matched the last six of seven ENCORE numbers in exact order during the April 8, 2025 LOTTO MAX draw.
The 76-year-old retiree picked up the winning ticket at Bayridge Grocery on Development Drive in Kingston as part of her regular routine.
Coyle, a long-time lottery player, always adds ENCORE to her tickets.
She discovered the win after her daughter checked the ticket and her grandson confirmed it.
The family was shocked, counting the zeroes multiple times.
With her winnings, Linda plans to renovate her home, help her children, save a portion, and take a well-earned vacation.
Linda said being a winner feels fantastic, and she’s not done dreaming yet.
