Correct Answer: Option B
Detailed Explanation:
The passage evaluates each statement:
- Statement 1 is Incorrect: Passage clearly states Hugh Grant watched the men's singles quarterfinals, not semifinals.
- Statement 2 is Incorrect: While 'unexpected ace' uses tennis terminology, the act is praised ("deserves empathy," "elegant case for surrender"), not viewed with opprobrium (harsh criticism).
- Statement 3 is Correct: Passage explicitly states Grant surrendered to "the body's quiet wisdom over society's relentless performance metrics"—prioritizing bodily limits over societal demands.
- Therefore, only Statement 3 is correct, making Option 2 the correct answer.
