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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n

After battles in the finals of Roland Garros, Wimbledon and the US Open this season, the two best players in the world will compete for the $6m overall prize on Saturday. <\/p>\n Sinner defeated Novak Djokovic<\/a> 6-4 6-2, with Alcaraz also in imposing form as he rolled through Taylor Fritz<\/a> 6-4 6-2 in the other semi-final. Alcaraz won his last meeting with Sinner at the US Open final last month, with the Spaniard winning seven of their last eight matches. <\/p>\n As it is an exhibition, the Six Kings Slam does not offer rankings points, or count towards official head-to-head records. It is the highest profile men\u2019s tennis event to take place in Saudi Arabia, which has often been accused of using sport and entertainment to whitewash its human rights record. <\/p>\n Riyadh also hosts the end-of-season WTA Finals, due to take place from 1 November, which features the eight best women\u2019s players in the world competing for the year-end prize. <\/p>\n Six Kings Slam schedule<\/p>\n Saturday October 18 <\/strong><\/p>\n From 5:30pm BST (UK time)<\/p>\n Third place match: Taylor Fritz<\/a> vs Novak Djokovic<\/a> <\/p>\n Not before 7:00pm BST (UK time)<\/p>\n Grand Final: Carlos Alcaraz<\/a> vs Jannik Sinner<\/a><\/p>\n Six Kings Slam results <\/p>\n Wednesday October 15<\/strong><\/p>\n Quarter-final 1: Taylor Fritz defeats Alexander Zverev<\/a> 6-3 6-4<\/p>\n Quarter-final 2: Jannik Sinner defeats Stefanos Tsitsipas<\/a> 6-2 6-3 <\/p>\n Thursday October 16<\/strong><\/p>\n Semi-final 1: Carlos Alcaraz defeats Taylor Fritz 6-4 6-2 <\/p>\n Semi-final 2: Jannik Sinner defeats Novak Djokovic 6-4 6-2<\/p>\n How to watch the Six Kings Slam <\/p>\n The Six Kings Slam will be shown live on Netflix.
