I'm Martin with your Newsround update coming up. I get a taste of

:00:00.:00:11.

the Tour de France route in Yorkshire. Biting in burgers gets

:00:12.:00:14.

messy at this competition in America.

:00:15.:00:22.

First: To Wimbledon, where it has been an exciting afternoon of tennis

:00:23.:00:27.

in the first of the men's semi-finals. The match between Novak

:00:28.:00:31.

Djokovic and Grigor Dimitrov has finished. Jenny is live in Wimbledon

:00:32.:00:34.

with the latest. Welcome back to Wimbledon. What a

:00:35.:00:39.

day I have had! I have been up on Murray Mound with thousands of

:00:40.:00:44.

tennis fans enjoying the first of the semi-final matches between Novak

:00:45.:00:48.

Djokovic and Grigor Dimitrov. In the last few minutes, Djokovic has won

:00:49.:00:53.

three sets to one. I am joined by Katherine Downes. Were you expecting

:00:54.:00:58.

the result? I think it was the result that everyone was expecting.

:00:59.:01:02.

Grigor Dimitrov is a rising star, he is young and will go on to win the

:01:03.:01:07.

Grand Slams. But Novak Djokovic has been there and done that, it was the

:01:08.:01:13.

experience that told out. At one point it looked like it was

:01:14.:01:18.

close? It was close. Sadly no fifth set. But four sets. It looked like

:01:19.:01:24.

Novak Djokovic was going to win it easily, then Grigor Dimitrov woke up

:01:25.:01:29.

in the second set, the last two sets to tie-break but the more

:01:30.:01:33.

experienced player that won. He goes through to the final.

:01:34.:01:37.

Thank you very much. Make sure you tune in to find out who is through

:01:38.:01:42.

to the final and to find out who the champions of Wimbledon 2014 will be.

:01:43.:01:49.

All this week we have been looking at "Aspirations", a survey for

:01:50.:01:53.

Newsround asked more than 1,500 children about their hopes and

:01:54.:01:57.

dreams for the future. It suggested that one in five black children felt

:01:58.:02:01.

skin colour could stop them from getting top jobs and suggested that

:02:02.:02:06.

black and Asian children were least likely to say that teachers would

:02:07.:02:11.

describe them as clever or ambitious. Ayshah went to meet

:02:12.:02:17.

Alesha Dixon and Sol Campbell and Maggie Aderin-Pocock.

:02:18.:02:26.

Also award-winning film director, Steve McQueen.

:02:27.:02:30.

The Tour de France starts tomorrow from a bit of an unusual location.

:02:31.:02:37.

For the first time ever, the first two stages are in Yorkshire. With

:02:38.:02:43.

some of the best cyclists on our doorstep, I hit the road to see what

:02:44.:02:47.

they are up against. The Tour de France is one of the toughest

:02:48.:02:51.

sporting events anywhere in the world. But how tough? Since it is

:02:52.:02:56.

coming to Yorkshire, there is only one way to find out. Using a hand

:02:57.:03:01.

bike, I am taking on part of stage one of the race from Ilkley to

:03:02.:03:09.

scripton. That is a warm-up for the race, the cyclists will be

:03:10.:03:14.

travelling 118 miles from Leeds to Harrogate. By the end of the month

:03:15.:03:22.

there are 2, 276 miles of the tour. I will be with some friends.

:03:23.:03:27.

We are doing a small ride compared to what the lads are doing on the

:03:28.:03:31.

day. It is tough going. But compared to

:03:32.:03:35.

the rest of the tour, this is flat. The climb on the parts that I am

:03:36.:03:41.

cycling is 226 metres. But in France, the riders are facing claims

:03:42.:03:46.

of over 2,000 metres. I am really, really tired. I have

:03:47.:03:51.

done about three miles. I have been up two hills at the most. That puts

:03:52.:03:57.

into context just how difficult this sport is, how fit these athletes

:03:58.:04:06.

have to be. So, what do you think it will do for somewhere like this? It

:04:07.:04:12.

will be fabulous. Hopefully people will come back here to cycle. There

:04:13.:04:17.

is a lot of buzz in the air, expectation and excitement. It will

:04:18.:04:20.

be amazing. It is exciting for Yorkshire but I

:04:21.:04:25.

will be taking in the excitement in front of the TV. That was tough

:04:26.:04:30.

going. Let's hope that the real cyclists look better than me. Next,

:04:31.:04:36.

who won the American independence Burger-eating Competition in

:04:37.:04:40.

Washington? The winner is mother of four, Molly Shohler. She ate a

:04:41.:04:47.

whopping 26 burgers in ten minutes. Patrick Bertoletti came second with

:04:48.:04:52.

25 burgers. There is more on the Newsround website including the

:04:53.:04:57.

Ronaldo predictions for the World Cup quarter-finals.

:04:58.:04:59.

That is it from me. Goodbye.
