Who invented badminton?
A) Sir Isaac Newton
B) Lord Badminton
C) J.G. Code
D) Pierre de Coubertin
Correct Answer:
B) Lord Badminton
Explanation:
The sport of badminton is believed to have been invented in India, but it gained popularity in England during the mid-19th century. It was played at the Duke of Beaufort’s Badminton House in Gloucestershire, England, hence the name “badminton.” Option B, “Lord Badminton,” represents the historical connection to the sport’s name. Options A, C, and D do not accurately represent the sport’s origin.
