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.

Graeme McDowell has pulled out of this week's PGA Tour Wells Fargo event at Quail Hollow. The 2010 US Open champion said he had felt "under the weather" at last week's Zurich Classic.

"Very much wanted to play but didn't want to go there undercooked. Practice and rest for me this week," McDowell said.

Rory McIlroy will be in action at the event where he claimed his first PGA Tour win in 2010. He defends his US Open title next month at the tough Olympic Club course in San Francisco.
