The question asks about the winner of the men`s singles title at the World Badminton Championship in the year 2001. The correct answer is not "2, Hendrawn" as provided.

Alert - correct answer should be "3, Ji Xin Peng".

Option 1: Gopichand, a player from India, who indeed won the All England Open Badminton Championship in 2001, but not the World Badminton Championship.

Option 2: Hendrawn, An error seems to have occurred in naming this player, as there is no known player by this name in badminton.

Option 3: Ji Xin Peng is a Chinese player who actually won the men`s singles at the World Badminton Championships in 2001. Hence, he is the correct answer.

Option 4: Peter Gade, a Danish player, is recognized for his achievements in badminton, but he did not win the World Badminton Championship in 2001.
