QUOTES OF THE DAY
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.n With him [Agassi] being on top of his game and being No 1 in the world, this was probably the best match I've ever had at Wimbledon. Boris Becker sums up his four-set semi-final triumph over Andre Agassi.
n I felt like I was always fighting uphill. He picked up his level and I never managed to pick up mine. After that second set, I never quite emotionally rose to the occasion. My confidence wasn't there. Agassi.
n Two careless games cost me the whole match. Goran Ivanisevic in downcast mood after his exit at the hands of the defending champion, Pete Sampras.
n All the match I was unlucky. Probably I was born unlucky. Most of the time, he hit a lucky shot. Ivanisevic.
n Sometimes it takes a little bit of luck to win. It definitely went my way today. Sampras.
n You don't care that it's break point. You're just here to have fun. Ivanisevic, upset over two line calls, complains to the umpire, Gerry Armstrong.
n It was a really scary rollercoaster ride for me. Goran must have the biggest serve in tennis history by far. Sampras.
n Two very hungry boys will play on Sunday. Becker.
