Jul. 07, 1977 - Nastase in Tennis Uproar: Fiery tennis star Ilie Nastase crashed out of the Wimbledon Championships yesterday after the ugliest scene ever witnessed in the history of the tournament. He was defeated by Bjorn Borg in straight sets. His cursing, raging swearing, made Umpire Shales label his behaviour was atrocious. Photo shows Ilie Nastase conducts an acrimonious debate with the Umpire Shales during his match against Borg on the centre Court at Wimbledon yesterday, Borg won 6-0,8-6, 6-3.
