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.

Tiger Woods made a strong start to his bid for a fifth Chevron World Challenge title in California yesterday. An opening round of 69 moved the former world No 1 into a share of second place in the 18-player field, alongside his fellow American Steve Stricker.

But while Woods and Stricker had good cause to be satisfied with their rounds, KJ Choi almost made them look like first-day slouches as he carded a 66 to open a three-shot lead.
