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.

Cameron Norrie is out of Queen’s after the British No 1 was defeated by Sebastian Korda in straight sets in the quarter-finals.

Norrie was targeting a home victory ahead of Wimbledon but was outgunned by the big-serving American, who won the second-set tiebreak 7-1 to wrap up a 6-4 7-6 win. His defeat means there will be no British interest, in singles or doubles, going into the weekend at Queen’s Club for the first time since 2012.

Korda will play top seed Carlos Alcaraz in the semi-finals after the top seed reached his first semi-final on grass with a 6-4 6-4 win over former Queen’s champion Grigor Dimitrov in the last match of the day.

Alex de Minaur became the first player through to the final four after holding off the challenge of Frenchman Adrian Mannarino in three sets. The Australian will play second seed Holger Rune after the 20-year-old prevailed against the Italian Lorenzo Musetti in straight sets.
