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.

Spanish 19-year-old Sergio Garcia has picked former Nick Faldo caddie Fanny Sunesson to carry his bag starting on 29 December in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Spanish 19-year-old Sergio Garcia has picked former Nick Faldo caddie Fanny Sunesson to carry his bag starting on 29 December in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Garcia, who is playing the first round of the Million Dollar Challenge on Thrusday in South Africa, was reported to have had 30 applicants for the job.

Jerry Higginbotham, fired a month ago by Garcia, has said the young Spaniard still has a lot of growing up to do. In October's World Match Play Championship in England, he took off his golf shoe and hurdled it down the fairway after slipping and hitting a poor tee shot.

"I heard that she works really hard," Garcia said of Sunesson. "Another good thing is that I am going to be playing in both the European and US tours, so to have a caddy who has been in both tours is always good."
