Explanation
S1 makes the general claim that field games are more popular than individual sports; S2 asserts the universal counter-example that tennis (an individual sport) is more popular than hockey (a field game) across the world. A universal counter-example to a general claim is a contradiction, which is stronger and more accurate than a mere contrast. Option (B) is correct.
