The world’s biggest lotto jackpot will be split three ways.

California Lottery spokesman Alex Traverso told The Associated Press early Thursday morning that the three previously announced winning tickets in the record $1.6 billion Powerball drawing represent all the grand-prize winners. No more will be forthcoming.

The tickets matching all numbers — 4-8-19-27-34 and Powerball 10 — were sold in Florida, Tennessee and Southern California.

The winners can opt for annual payments over decades or a lump-sum payment.

None of the winners’ identities have yet been revealed.
