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.IAN WOOSNAM, who has not won a tournament for eight months, had his mental and physical stamina severely tested in a marathon final round when he won the Monte Carlo Open for the third successive year on Saturday.
Low cloud on the 3,000-foot high Mont Agel course meant that his closing 64 took more than six hours to complete. He finished with a 15-under-par 261, Johan Rystrom and Mark McNulty were two shots behind.
'I putted really well,' said the former world No 1, whose hat- trick was the first in Europe since Australia's Peter Thomson won the Open in 1954-56.' Now I've got the confidence to start attacking in preparation for the Open.'
