The question presents us with three pairs of names and sports. We are asked to determine which of the pairs are correctly matched.
Option 1 states that only pairs 1 and 2 are correctly matched.
Let`s analyze each pair:
1. Lionel Messi : Football - Lionel Messi is a renowned football player, so this pair is correctly matched.
2. Namit Bahadur : Boxing - We do not have any knowledge or information about a person named Namit Bahadur in the field of boxing. Therefore, this pair is not correctly matched.
3. Sanya Richards : Badminton - Sanya Richards is actually a retired American track and field athlete, specifically specializing in sprinting. There is no connection between her and the sport of badminton. Hence, this pair is not correctly matched.
Based on our analysis, option 1 is correct. However, it is worth noting that option 4 is not the correct answer since pair 3 is not correctly matched.
