# 133 Which Cup?

A)


B)

C)


An indirect hint.
A was inspired by B and C to start something very popular. What is it?

Spot on V. Chandrashekhar and good try Rohan.

Answer: The Thomas Cup sometimes called the World Men's Team Championships. It is an international badminton competition among teams representing member nations of Badminton World Federation (BWF).

A= Sir George Alan Thomas
B=Davis Cup
C=Jules Rimet Trophy, given to the FIFA World Cup winner upto 1970.

According to wiki, "
The Thomas Cup competition was the idea of Sir George Alan Thomas, a highly successful English badminton player of the early 1900's, who was inspired by tennis's Davis Cup, and football's (soccer's) World Cup first held in 1930."
