Is my physique remotely ideal for tennis?
I'm 13, around 115-120 pounds (54kg) and 167cm (5'6) tall. I have a healthy enough looking physique but lack flexibility in the core region. I am more proficient at speed than endurance, able to bound from one end to the next very quickly. I recover quickly with a few short breaths but i've noticed after a while my strokes are lethargic or hit out of the court due to exhaustion. I'm on the fence about seriously chasing tennis as a passion/pro, but i need a few pointers to guide me. What should I work on? Is my genetic build preventing me from succeeding?

endurance is key in tennis. It doesn't matter if you're fast, if you lose your endurance pretty quickly. I don't think it has anything to do with your build, just work on your endurance. Try sprint training. It builds up muscles, and endurance when you do it for long periods of time.
