Hi, Whitney here live

from the Newsround studio.

Coming up in the next few minutes...

The record-breaker

sailing to success.

And a boy with a cracking

business idea.

First up...

With the Winter Olympics just ten

days away, some British athletes

have been getting a taste

of medal success already.

Britain's Izzy Atkin,

who is just 19, won silver

in the ski slopestyle,

while 2017 champion James Woods came

third in the ski big air.

But as well as British success,

there has been a lot of extreme

action at this year's Games.

Take a look at this.

I couldn't even begin to count

the number of flips he did there,

but it's not just the men

who have been impressing.

This run was enough to get

Anna Gasser her first

X Games big air gold medal.

But if you think the X Games

are all about skiing

and snowboarding, well,

you'd be wrong.

Check this out.

I wonder who actually figured out

you could flip a snowmobile.

Now, here is one boy who has found

an EGG-cellent way of making a bit

of extra pocket money.

Watch this.

Most kids want a puppy

or a kitten as a pet.

But not Avi.

He wanted chickens.

I like keeping them because it's fun

to, like, play with them,

and I give them cuddles.

Here's your breakfast!

Every morning and night

after school, Avi braves the weather

to look after his hens.

We have to clear the poo

in the coop, we have to fill

the water and food up,

collect the eggs.

But they're not just pets any more.

Avi realised he could make some

extra money selling their eggs.

So we started off with four hens,

and now we've increased to 56.

We get orders, we've got a Facebook

page and we deliver them every week.

And the whole family's got involved

with his egg selling business.

His parents are the delivery

drivers and his brothers

help with packing them.

I didn't think it would

get this big so soon.

So it's...

I'm proud of my brother.

So what's so special

about Avi's eggs?

Our chickens are well loved.

All day they can walk around

the grass and eat all the bugs,

and our yolk is really orange.

Looks like you're running an

absolutely cracking business, Avi!

Next, to one of the toughest ocean

races in the world -

the World Yacht Race -

and to Nicki Henderson,

the youngest ever winner.

Watch this.

Sailing across open

oceans under blue skies.

Sounds like a dream, doesn't?

But these crews have to sail 40,000

nautical miles across the world.

The incredible journey

starts here in the UK,

sailing from Liverpool to South

America.

Then up to the tip of Africa,

round Australia, up to China,

all the way to Seattle

on the West Coast

of the United States,

to New York on the east coast,

and back to the UK again!

It takes almost a whole

year to complete!

I feel exhausted just

thinking about it.

But it has not been too much

for Nikki's crew to handle.

She is sailing in the Clipper Round

the World Yacht Races,

as part of Team Visit Seattle.

And they have won one of the most

difficult race stages,

sailing from Hobart on the island

of Tasmania up to the east

coast of Australia.

The big win means 24-year-old Nikki

from Guildford is now the youngest

ever skipper to win a race

in the competition.

This route alone took 11 days,

with the crew facing massive

lightning storms and winds

as powerful as a small hurricaine.

So, how are they feeling?

The race was really tough, actually.

Tougher than any

of us were expecting.

It was a challenging race.

They are now halfway

through the entire race route,

all 40,000 nautical miles of it.

But thankfully they get a little bit

of a break before starting

the next race stage,

which will take them almost

6000 miles to China.

Best of luck, guys!

And enjoy your time off.

Sounds like you have

definitely earned it.

Now - if you're potty about Potter

you won't want to miss this.

Imagine living in the Hogwarts world

while on your phone or tablet.

Hayley's been looking into it.

Calling all Potter fans.

Are you still waiting

on your letter to Hogwarts?

Wish you could take

part in a wizard duel?

Then this news is right

up your Diagon Alley.

A trailer has been released

for a brand-new Harry

Potter mobile game.

It's called Harry Potter:

Hogwarts Mystery.

Players can create their own

character and attend Hogwarts' set

in the 1980s.

Characters like Hagrid,

Snape and Professor

McGonagall will all be there.

You can attend spells

and potion classes

and even have wizard duels.

The app will be released

later this year but

there's more Harry

Potter on the way.

A game called Wizards Unite is also

in the works which will be

similar to Pokemon Go.

Head online for more

of today's top news,

including the Lego brick celebrating

it's 60th birthday.

Check out how much it has changed

since it was first invented.

That's all from me today,

but luckily for you Ricky is back

bright and early tomorrow morning

at 7:40am with all the

latest news stories.

Have a great Sunday.
