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.Dunhill Links champion Branden Grace has pulled out of this week's Portugal Masters after remembering what happened to him the last time he tried for three wins in a row.
The 24-year-old missed the halfway cut in Abu Dhabi in January following back-to-back victories.
"I'm pretty knackered," said Grace, whose triumph at St Andrews yesterday came a week after capturing the Vodacom Origins of Golf title in his native South Africa. "I think it might not be a bad idea skipping the next one."
The Pretoria player is up to third on the European Tour money list a year after having to go to the qualifying school for a fifth time.
He will continue his pursuit of top two Rory McIlroy and Justin Rose in China later this month.
