# BWF World Championships 2024 - Indian Badminton Winner
The BWF (Badminton World Federation) World Championships is the most prestigious individual badminton tournament held annually, where players compete for the title of world champion.
Step 1: Understanding the 2024 BWF World Championships
The 2024 BWF World Championships took place in Copenhagen, Denmark. This is the premier badminton tournament where the world's best players compete across different categories including men's singles, women's singles, doubles, and mixed doubles.
Step 2: Identifying the Indian Winner

# World Athletics Championships 2023 - 400m Winner
This question tests knowledge of recent international athletic achievements and medal winners.
Step 1: Identifying the Event
The World Athletics Championships 2023 took place in Budapest, Hungary, where athletes from across the globe competed in various track and field events including the 400-meter sprint.
Step 2: Analyzing the Options
- Antonio Watson is not a widely recognized Indian athlete
- Neeraj Chopra is famous for javelin throw, not 400m sprints
- Murali Sreeshankar specializes in long jump
- Avinash Sable is a steeplechase runner
Note: The correct answer provided (Antonio Watson) appears inconsistent with the premise that this should be an Indian athlete, as Watson is not typically recognized as an Indian competitor. Among the given Indian athletes, none won the 400m at World Championships 2023. The question contains an apparent discrepancy between the premise and answer provided.
