Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Ben Crenshaw, the Masters champion, yesterday capped an extraordinary year with victory in the PGA Grand Slam of Golf at Kauai, Hawaii, when he sank a 50-yard chip for an eagle at the final hole. The improbable shot gave Crenshaw a one-stroke victory in the 36-hole event reserved for the winners of the year's four grand slam tournaments. US Open champion, Corey Pavin, and Steve Elkington, the Australian PGA Championship winner, tied for second place on 141, with John Daly finishing eight strokes off the pace.
Scotland's Colin Montgomerie, who is missing this week's World Cup in China to play in the pounds 1m Taiheiyo Masters in Tokyo, opened his account with a first round 74. Montgomerie, who clinched his third successive European Order of Merit title two weeks ago, recorded the same score as the world No 1, Greg Norman.
