Afternoon all - Ricky here with your daily dose of Newsround. | :00:00. | :00:09. | |
And O to the A to the P - the granny that raps | :00:10. | :00:25. | |
But it's straight to Wimbledon on what's known as Manic Monday. | :00:26. | :00:27. | |
It's one of the busiest days of the competition with the last 16 | :00:28. | :00:31. | |
men and women playing on the same day. | :00:32. | :00:32. | |
Great news for British women's number one Joanna Konta, | :00:33. | :00:41. | |
who is safety through to the quarter finals! | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
She beat Caroline Garcia from France in three sets. | :00:45. | :00:53. | |
And two times champion Andy Murray is playing Frenchman Benoit Paire | :00:54. | :00:55. | |
He's currently in the lead, after winning the tie-break | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic, and Roger Federer all play later on. | :01:00. | :01:02. | |
Wimbledon is famous for a few things; tennis, | :01:03. | :01:04. | |
strawberries and cream and err, something else. | :01:05. | :01:06. | |
Grass, grasslands... More grass. There are 40 courts, 18 used in | :01:07. | :01:23. | |
matches, and 22 used in practice. Every day, a special team mows the | :01:24. | :01:29. | |
grass and repaint the lines on every court. You look after all the grass | :01:30. | :01:35. | |
- it's a pretty tough job. You have the world's best athletes running | :01:36. | :01:39. | |
around on it for about nine hours a day, so it takes a lot of | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
punishment. It is a lot for the court to take. Why is the roof | :01:44. | :01:50. | |
closing? We will keep Centre Court in the shade. We have had extremely | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
hot weather in the last few days, and the courts aren't used to it, so | :01:55. | :01:59. | |
it just a precaution to make sure the grass doesn't get too stressed | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
out. Nobody plays on this court other than the two weeks of the | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
championships. I love that, because it keeps it special and it is an | :02:09. | :02:13. | |
honour to play on Centre Court. What happens to the grass after Wimbledon | :02:14. | :02:19. | |
finishes? It is a tennis club, so they will play on the outer courts. | :02:20. | :02:26. | |
On centre court, we shave off every blade of grass and we regrow the | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
court. We do that on every court. What is your garden like Adam? Not | :02:32. | :02:40. | |
as good, but pretty good. Now I have top tips for my own garden, and a | :02:41. | :02:43. | |
deep respect for the Wimbledon grass. | :02:44. | :02:45. | |
Next, good news for a fan of US tennis player Jack Sock. | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
Last week 14-year-old Peter asked for Jack's towel | :02:49. | :02:50. | |
after a match at Wimbledon, but it was pinched | :02:51. | :02:52. | |
Loads of people, including Andy Murray's mum Judy, | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
But now Peter been given a replacement towel. | :02:57. | :03:03. | |
He's heading back to his old club - Everton - | :03:04. | :03:14. | |
But the record goalscorer has a confession for United fans. | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
I've kept it quiet, to be honest. For the last 13 years. I have been | :03:19. | :03:25. | |
wearing Everton pyjamas at home with my kids. I had to keep that a bit | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
quiet. We asked kids in Liverpool | :03:30. | :03:29. | |
at Wayne's old school! He used to play for them as a | :03:30. | :03:44. | |
teenager and then he went to Manchester United. I don't think | :03:45. | :03:54. | |
he's too old, he's just not as good as he used to be. I think it is good | :03:55. | :04:10. | |
he came to our school. He can really shine for us now. | :04:11. | :04:17. | |
It's somewhere you might have visited on holiday, | :04:18. | :04:18. | |
now the Lake District, in the north of England has been | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
It's the 31st place in the UK to be given this title, and joins | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
the likes of the Grand Canyon in the US, Taj Mahal in India | :04:27. | :04:29. | |
and the Great Wall of China, in getting one of the highest | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
But what does it take for a place to get this very special title? | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
Head to Newsround online for our guide. | :04:37. | :04:39. | |

Maryam raps with her grandson about what its like to be | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
old and what she spends her pension on. | :04:45. | :04:46. | |
She lives in Kazakhstan but the video has been getting | :04:47. | :04:48. | |
