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.MARTINE Le Moignan's ambition to end her long career this year with the rank of world No 1 may take an important step forward here in her home town over the next five days, writes Richard Eaton from St Peter Port.
The left-handed former world champion is seeded second in the Guernsey Open behind the world No 1 from Australia, Michelle Martin.
However, a bigger threat could come from another Australian, Liz Irving, who beat both Martin and Le Moignan to win the Leekes Classic in Cardiff last month and is in Le Moignan's half of the draw.
Yesterday's draw for next month's Hi-Tec British Open has also put Irving in Le Moignan's half. England's world No 5, Peter Marshall, has a likely British Open quarter-final with Chris Dittmar, the world No 2.
