keywords: 

{'uber cup badminton tournaments': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'thomas cup': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'uber cup': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'world team championship': [0, 0, 0, 1]}

The correct answer is option 2: 2 only.

Statement 1 states that China won both the Thomas Cup and Uber Cup Badminton Tournaments in 2014. This statement is incorrect because it is not accurate. The provided information does not give any evidence or data to support this claim. Therefore, statement 1 is incorrect.

Statement 2 states that the Uber Cup is the World Team Championship for women and the Thomas Cup is for men. This statement is correct. The Uber Cup is indeed the World Team Championship for women in badminton, while the Thomas Cup is the equivalent tournament for men. These tournaments have been held since the 1940s and are organized by the Badminton World Federation (BWF).

In summary, only statement 2 is correct. China`s victory in both cups in 2014 is not supported by the given information, so statement 1 is incorrect.
