Indian Sports and Sportspersons

Adrian Sutil drove for Force India Formula 1 team. Narain Karthikeyan has also driven in F1 but for different teams (Jordan, HRT). The other options are not F1 drivers. However, the word 'Currently' makes this question time-dependent - Force India changed to Racing Point in 2019, so this question may be outdated.

Harbhajan Singh was born on July 3, 1980. This is the correct birth date. The other options (1978, 1981, Oct 1980) are all incorrect dates.

Salim Durrani was the first Indian cricketer to receive the Arjuna Award in 1961, established to recognize outstanding sporting achievement.

Arjun Atwal became the first Indian golfer to win on the US PGA Tour when he triumphed at the 2010 Wyndham Championship. This was a historic achievement for Indian golf on the global stage. Jeev Milkha Singh has won on the European Tour but not the US PGA Tour, while Jyoti Randhawa and R S Sinha are also accomplished golfers but haven't achieved this specific milestone.

C. Muniyappa was indeed named the Rookie of the Year in 2009 on the Asian Tour, becoming the first Indian to win this award after a successful season that included a victory at the Panasonic Open.

Rohan Bopanna partnered with Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi (Pakistan) to finish as runners-up in the 2010 US Open men's doubles. They lost to the Bryan brothers in the final. Leander Paes won the title that year with Lukas Dlouhy, while Bhupathi and Amritraj were not in the final.

Arjun Atwal became the first Indian golfer to win on the US PGA Tour, winning the Wyndham Championship in 2010. Jeev Milkha Singh was a successful golfer on the European Tour but never won a PGA Tour event. Pankaj Advani is a snooker/billiards player, not a professional golfer.

Sourav Ganguly fits all clues: 5th cricketer to score 10,000 ODI runs, father Chuni Ganguly was a famous footballer, wife Dona is a classical dancer, brother Snehasish is in cricket selection committee. He hosted a Bengali reality show 'Dadagiri'. Dravid, Sehwag, and Yuvraj don't match all the family/clues.

Saina Nehwal has won the Indonesian Open, Indian Open, and Singapore Super Series. She has not won the China Open Super Series premier title, though she has had success in other Chinese tournaments. This question reflects her achievements as of a certain period in her career.
