Gym routine with Tennis
What would be some good additional exercises to do at the gym for 2 days a week with 7 days of tennis?
Objective - Improve strength, mobility and endurance. (Not particularly in this order)
I am pretty familiar with StrongLifts 5*5, which I have been following before this, but am afraid it has to stop now (don't have enough time).
My routine, which I am aiming to follow is, 7 days tennis, Saturday Sunday gym, mainly compound movements like, squats (with lesser weight), overhead press, deadlift, bench press, pull ups, seated row/weight pull ups(that machine which has a rod).
Please help me refine this plan.
About me: 7-8 hours of sitting job, weight 60 Kgs, height 180 cm, 23 years old.
Thanks a lot! :)

This link has a routine for tennis (3 or 4 days, which you can adapt to your needs):

And here you can find a great exercise database with video demonstration:

And this USTA link has some good warm-up, drills and strength training, although they use bands instead of dumbbells or barbells.

There is also a free app called bodyspace that you can use to track your workouts, and there are some tennis workouts in there.
