Romania captain Ilie Nastase has been expelled from the Fed Cup tie with Britain, officials announced on April 22, 2017. Romanian tennis great Ilie Nastase is the subject of an investigation by the International Tennis Federation (ITF) over an alleged racist remark about Serena Williams's pregnancy. Nastase, who is Romania's Fed Cup captain, was heard to say to a member of the team at the April 21 press conference ahead of a tie with Britain: "Let's see what colour it (the baby) has. Chocolate with milk?" Nastase, renowned during his playing days for his hot headed behaviour, plunged himself into even deeper trouble on April 22, 2017 when, according to reports, he used foul and abusive remarks courtside to pregnant British captain Anna Keovathong -- whose room number he'd asked for at the press conference -- and star player Johanna Konta. / AFP PHOTO / PATRICK KOVARIK
