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.

ATP World Rankings (previous week in brackets):

Tim Henman and Greg Rusedski have both slipped out of the world's top 10 to leave Britain without a player in tennis' elite for the first time in more than a year.

Henman crashed out of the top 10 in the latest rankings released today, following his second-round exit in last week's Stockholm Open.

The British number one falls two places to 12 while injured Rusedski drops a further two places to number 14 after tumbling from sixth to 12th last week.

Both players have come to the end of their seasons having failed to qualify for next week's ATP Tour World Championship in Hanover.

Britain have had at least one representative in the top 10 since October 12 1998 and both players will begin next season outside of the elite group.

Sweden's Thomas Enqvist rises to four on the list after his win in Stockholm.
