Good afternoon, I'm Jenny!

0:00:070:00:09

You're watching Newsround, live on CBBC.

0:00:090:00:11

Don't go anywhere, because all this is coming up...

0:00:110:00:21

Nadal wins a tenth French Open.

0:00:210:00:27

We look at his life in numbers.

0:00:270:00:29

And we bring you footgolf.

0:00:290:00:30

Yep, you heard right...

0:00:300:00:31

Footgolf!

0:00:310:00:34

Tennis first, and the awesome Rafa Nadal has come a long way

0:00:340:00:37

in the last ten years.

0:00:370:00:38

He won his tenth French Open tennis title yesterday.

0:00:380:00:41

The world number two says his win was "perfect",

0:00:410:00:43

and after fighting back from injury it's a phenomenal win.

0:00:430:00:47

Here's Leah with Nadal in numbers.

0:00:470:00:49

He's one of Spain's greatest stars.

0:00:490:00:52

He's known as the muscles from Majorca.

0:00:520:00:56

And his victory in the French Open was nothing short of a perfect ten.

0:00:560:00:59

So here's Nadal in numbers...

0:00:590:01:01

Two.

0:01:010:01:04

Nadal is now ranked world number two, just behind

0:01:040:01:06

Britain's Andy Murray.

0:01:060:01:07

But it's his highest ranking since October 2014.

0:01:070:01:10

53.

0:01:100:01:14

This is Nadal's 53rd clay court title,

0:01:140:01:15

more than any other player.

0:01:150:01:18

79.

0:01:180:01:20

Nadal has now won all but two of his 81 matches at Roland Garros,

0:01:200:01:23

the Wimbledon of Paris.

0:01:230:01:26

And ten.

0:01:260:01:28

That's the number of finals he's won in Paris.

0:01:280:01:31

In fact, he's never lost at Roland Garros once he's

0:01:310:01:33

reached the semi finals.

0:01:330:01:34

Such a winner!

0:01:340:01:40

Thanks!

0:01:400:01:41

A new Xbox was revealed in Los Angeles, in the US, last night.

0:01:410:01:45

It's called the Xbox One X.

0:01:450:01:47

It can play games in ultra HD 4K, although you'll need an expensive

0:01:470:01:50

new TV to notice the difference, and it will cost twice

0:01:500:01:52

as much as the normal Xbox.

0:01:520:01:54

The makers say it will be the world's most powerful console.

0:01:540:01:59

Nurdles, it's a funny word isn't it?

0:01:590:02:03

Well, these beads have been causing a big problem in our seas.

0:02:030:02:06

Ayshah has more.

0:02:060:02:08

Nurdles!

0:02:080:02:09

Nurdles!

0:02:090:02:10

Nurdles!

0:02:100:02:12

That's what these things are called!

0:02:120:02:17

And we're here with Ayshah to go on a hunt to find them!

0:02:170:02:22

While they're still looking, I'll tell you a bit more about...

0:02:220:02:25

Nurdles!

0:02:250:02:28

Nurdles are small plastic balls, similar to micro beads,

0:02:280:02:30

found in facewash.

0:02:300:02:34

They're used to make bigger plastic products, like bottles...

0:02:340:02:36

And paddling pools.

0:02:360:02:40

Millions of them wash up on UK beaches every year.

0:02:400:02:42

Guys, what have you found so far?

0:02:420:02:45

We've found loads and loads of nurdles.

0:02:450:02:46

Like, tonnes!

0:02:460:02:50

We've found nurdles, just lying on the beach.

0:02:500:02:52

They were really hard to find.

0:02:520:02:55

The sea is basically pushing them into the ground and the sand

0:02:550:02:58

is covering them up.

0:02:580:03:02

We're nurdle hunting today.

0:03:020:03:03

Why are we doing it?

0:03:030:03:05

Well, we're trying to get lots of people out on the beaches,

0:03:050:03:08

looking for these little pellets called nurdles, to try

0:03:080:03:10

to help us make a map.

0:03:100:03:12

We use that information to then talk to companies that are handling

0:03:120:03:15

these little pellets, spilling them by accident,

0:03:150:03:17

to help them and make sure they're going to stop spilling them

0:03:170:03:20

in the future.

0:03:200:03:24

These pellets are really, really small.

0:03:240:03:25

Can they cause any harm to anything in the sea?

0:03:250:03:29

They are small, but once they're in the sea they don't go away,

0:03:290:03:32

they'll just break down into smaller and smaller pieces.

0:03:320:03:35

Unfortunately, they also look quite a lot like animal food, fish eggs,

0:03:350:03:38

so sea birds and fish eat them and they feel full and

0:03:380:03:40

don't eat proper food.

0:03:400:03:41

It is a big problem.

0:03:410:03:45

Who's found nurdles?

0:03:450:03:46

We have!

0:03:460:03:47

Come show me!

0:03:470:03:48

I want to see!

0:03:480:03:51

Wow!

0:03:510:03:52

OK!

0:03:520:03:54

Some here...

0:03:540:03:55

How many do you think we've got?

0:03:550:03:57

More than 1,000!

0:03:570:04:00

There were loads, were there?

0:04:000:04:02

Good job, guys!

0:04:020:04:03

You can offically call yourselves...

0:04:030:04:04

Nurdle hunters!

0:04:040:04:10

Thanks guys!

0:04:170:04:18

Next, to the car disappearing into a sink hole in Florida,

0:04:180:04:21

in the United States.

0:04:210:04:22

The car was parked at a fast food restaurant, with no one inside it

0:04:220:04:25

when the hole opened up.

0:04:250:04:26

Luckily, it seems the sink hole wasn't quite big enough to swallow

0:04:260:04:29

the car and it was left with the back end sticking

0:04:290:04:32

out of the ground.

0:04:320:04:33

You might have heard of golf, maybe even crazy golf,

0:04:330:04:35

but what about footgolf?

0:04:350:04:36

Well 300 players from 22 different countries have just taken part

0:04:360:04:39

in the fourth edition of the Foot Golf Capital Cup,

0:04:390:04:41

outside Amsterdam in the Netherlands.

0:04:410:04:47

Fabien Helbois from France won the trophy and a reward

0:04:470:04:49

of prize of 3000 Euros.

0:04:490:04:51

Nice one!

0:04:510:04:54

That's all from the team today, but don't worry, Newsround's back

0:04:540:04:57

tomorrow morning at 7:40 with Leah.

0:04:570:04:58
