i second that. Hayom net tricks are excelent, smash also not bad, backhand, dropshot are also good. He needs more speed and defence, maybe he should watch how LCW done it
LCW is just outstanding in speed and defence... A hard act to follow... Even for Hayom... Hayom's smash is more awesome than many people's smash...
i've nvr seen this dude play apart from taipei open 2009 against taufik on youtube...but his height and everyone's comments on him are on very positive notes...although at 22, taufik had already reached 2 all england finals and won AG gold...but then again not everyone can fill in those big shoes of his
Yes, agree.. is smash to opponent's body is amazing.. Saw that when he played against taufik yesterday.

It is possible that Hayom will become the official INA #3 next year... Seems like Sony is struggling with his injury a lot lately... And as we can see today on TV, Hayom has more firepower than Simon... In the long-run, Hayom will outshine Simon...
He needs to be patience as well....as we saw him against Simon, he rushed it many times and made his own errors
after a month hayom is now the 2nd ms behind taufik,ranked 18 http://bwf.tournamentsoftware.com/ranking/category.aspx?id=1806&category=472
Yea, true... but I am sure MAS will produce another LCW in a couple of years... Success begets success... We saw in throughout INA, MAS, DEN badminton history...
There is no young prospect in sight in MAS camp that BAM can develop into another LCW, so in a couple of years, that may not happen lah
