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.

Henman is the bookmakers' favourite but it should be a fascinating contest between Britain's household favourite over the last 10 years and the man looking to claim his crown as British No 1.

Yesterday also brought a surprise for another Scot, Alan Mackin, a lucky loser, who takes the place of the injured world No 2 Rafael Nadal. Roger Federer, the world No 1, also misses his home tournament because of an ankle injury.
