In sentence (i), "qualification" (B) should be interchanged with "hoped" (D). The corrected sentence would read: "disappointing fans who had hoped to see him defend his title" and "the withdrawal could jeopardize his qualification for the year-end ATP Finals." This interchange makes the sentences grammatically and contextually correct. The other pair (A-C) does not require interchange, as "shared" (A) and "sits" (C) are used correctly in their original contexts. Thus, the correct option is B-D only.
