Tennis balls are made of a layer of rubber surrounding a hollow center. Then they put a thin layer of adhesive on the rubber and cover it with a layer of felt (traditionally yellow). The air pressure inside the ball is 12 psi (pounds per square inch) greater than ambient air pressure at sea level (the ’normal’ air pressure all around you). The ambient air pressure is 14.7 psi, so all together, the pressure inside the ball is 26.7 psi. The core of a tennis ball is pressurized air.

Why is a golf ball heavier than a table-tennis ball even though the balls are the same size?

Because the table-tennis ball is hollow on the inside and made of a lighter weight celluloid, while the golf ball is made of a hard outer shell of plastic with rubber compacted on the inside. The golf ball is denser, meaning it has more mass per volume (since they're the same size), so it is heavier.
