What Balls of Fury is

An FBI agent recruits a washed-up ping-pong hustler to infiltrate a high-stakes tournament run by the man who ruined his childhood. Fifteen years after his father’s murder over a gambling debt, the prodigy-turned-small-time-crook is their only shot. The plan involves rackets, rackets, and more rackets.
