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.

The England Under-16 team yesterday beat their Italian counterparts 4-2 in the annual international at Radcliffe-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire, with Scott Godfrey (St Enodoc) and David Porter (West Herts) gaining two victories each. England won the morning foursomes 2-0, while the afternoon singles were shared 2-2.

Retief Goosen, of South Africa, led from start to finish in the French Open at the weekend, winning pounds 100,000 to move up 10 places into third place on the European money list. Goosen, who has now earned pounds 254,913 this year, pushed his compatriot Ernie Els down to fourth place on the list with pounds 243,467. Colin Montgomerie of Scotland, who has topped the money list for the past four years, stayed in contention to win his fifth title after sharing 11th place in France. He won pounds 10,320 and is sixth on the order of merit with pounds 216,004.
