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.Jim Furyk and Thomas Bjorn announced their singles line-ups for Sunday's decisive final day with Team USA needing to strike a blow early after Europe held on to their four-point lead after Saturday afternoon's foursomes.
Rory McIlroy, who has had an on-and-off weekend, will play Justin Thomas in the opener as the Americans look to get off to the best possible start. Thomas has three points from a possible four including a pair of wins on Saturday alongside Jordan Spieth.
Rookie Jon Rahm faces a tough battle with Tiger Woods, albeit a Woods who has been under the weather this week and has zero points from a possible three thus far.
Europe's 100% pairing Tommy Fleetwood and Francesco Molinari will play Phil Mickelson - who has zero points so far - and rookie Tony Finau respectively.
Spieth, America's most impressive performer over the first two days at Le Golf National, landed a match-up with European rookie Thorbjorn Olesen.
Veterans Paul Casey and Brooks Koepka will meet in match two, while Justin Rose comes up against Webb Simpson in the next match-up. Fan favourite Ian Poulter play world No.1 Dustin Johnson, Sergio Garcia has been drawn against Rickie Fowler and Englishman Tyrrell Hatton is set to play 'Captain America' Patrick Reed, who had a disastrous Saturday.
Henrik Stenson will need all his experience when he faces off with Bubba Watson in the penultimate tie while Alex Noren and Bryson DeChambeau will be the last out in an all-rookie match-up that just might decide who wins the Ryder Cup.
