Any tennis player enjoys more with more skills and hence more options to hit balls. With more options to choose, you can develop mental department of the tennis which gives you more fun.
I’ll post more comments are on team players. Please remember that in tennis, it takes at least a few months to get used to any minor technical changes, only changes in mental department can be instantaneous if a player can recognize/analyze the reality, which may often takes months and years.
