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.

Laura Davies dropped a shot at the first hole of the final round yesterday but recovered her composure to return a superb six-under-par 66 and win the Kosaido Asahi Thailand Open championship in Bangkok. 'I was under pressure at the start of the day and things became even more tense after a bogey at the first,' she said. 'The birdie on the second really took a lot of pressure off me and then I played fine golf.' Her 206 total for three rounds at the Thana City Golf and Country Club was seven shots better than the runner-up, Australia's Mardi Lunn.
