3) Topspin drives both sides.
4) Continental grip volley.
5) Split-step footwork.

Those seem too general...
That's why I put a limit to 5 items/areas - my list would be miles long otherwise! I'm sure everybody will have a list of 5 things every player should be able to do, I'm wondering if it's possible to synthesise them into a sort of "Super 5"!
