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.Australia's Karrie Webb had a hole in one as she cruised to her second major victory in the Nabisco Championship at Mission Hills, Palm Springs, California, today.
The 25-year-old, with four wins and a second already this year, started the day with an eight shot lead on 12 under par 204 and had increased it to ten over defending champion Dottie Pepper by the time she holed out with a six iron at the 170 yard fifth.
Thai twin Aree Song Wongluekiet, who started the day in joint third on two under, maintained her incredible run.
Her third round 68 was only surpassed by Webb's 67 and it earned her a place in the final threesome on the final day.
In the company of Webb and Pepper she held her won by covering the opening stretch in level par.
England's Helen Dobson, who finished second two years ago, mounted a final day charge. After six birdies in the first 11 holes she was two under and in joint fourth place.
But Trish Johnson, fifth at halfway but down the field after a third round 78, was disqualified after failing to sign her scorecard. The first player to finish, she had shot 73 for six over 294.
