It was a notable day for lottery players in Wisconsin on July 9, 2025. The Badger 5 and Powerball draws brought significant wins to several ticket holders.

The Badger 5 jackpot, amounting to $146,000, was divided between tickets bought at BP on W. Main St in Stoughton and Kwik Trip on W. Prairie St. in Boscobel. The numbers drawn were 5-9-12-16-17. Jennifer Garcia, the manager of BP, expressed her excitement: “It’s amazing,” she said. “It great to sell a big winning ticket. Lots of our regulars play Badger 5.”

This year has seen twelve Badger 5 jackpots surpass $100,000.

Additionally, a $50,000 Powerball win was reported from a ticket sold at Kwik Trip on Abbey Rd. in Onalaska. This ticket matched four out of five numbers (5-9-25-28-69) along with the Powerball (5). Across the United States, there were seven $50,000 winners from the recent Powerball draw.

In Wisconsin alone, there were 4,934 Powerball winners with prizes ranging from $4 to $50,000. The upcoming Powerball jackpot is estimated at $234 million.

Wisconsin Lottery retailers benefit from selling winning tickets over $599 by receiving a two percent Retailer Performance Winning Ticket Incentive up to $100,000.

Winners have 180 days to claim their prizes and can find details on claiming procedures at wilottery.com or through the Lottery’s mobile app available on major platforms.

Powerball drawings take place thrice weekly—Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday—at 9:59 p.m., requiring tickets to be bought by 9 p.m. A standard Powerball play costs $2 with an optional Power Play feature available for an additional dollar.
