Nastase became one of the best players in 1970, with many experts ranking him as the sixth best player in the world after the Australians Rod Laver, Ken Rosewall, John Newcombe, and Roche and the American Ashe.

In 1971, Nastase was the runner-up at a depleted French Open with 16 of the 32 World Championship Tennis (WCT) players absent. World Championship Tennis (WCT was a tour for professional male Tennis players established in 1968 (the first players signed a contract at the end of 1967 and lasted until Nastase lost in four sets to Jan Kodes. Jan Kodes ( Czech: Jan Kodeš; born March 1 1946, in Prague, Czechoslovakia) is a right-handed Czech former In December, Nastase won the Grand Prix Masters, again without the WCT players.

The two following years saw Nastase's apogee.

In 1972, he became the second ranked player in the world (see World number one male tennis player rankings), owing to his winning the U. World number one male tennis player rankings is a year-by-year listing of both the male Tennis player who at the end of a full year of play has generally been considered to S.

In December, Nastase won his first match of the year with Smith and his second consecutive Grand Prix Masters title. (The WCT players were again absent from the tournament. ) Smith defeated Nastase four of the five times they played that year.

In 1973, Wimbledon and the Australian Open again had very depleted fields. The Australian Open is one of the four Grand Slam Tennis Tournaments held each year Roughly 80 players boycotted Wimbledon because of a controversy involving Nikki Pilic. Nikola "Niki" Pilic ( Croatian: Nikola Pilić; born 27 August 1939 in Split, Littoral Banovina, Kingdom Only 4 of the 20 best players in the world entered (Nastase, Kodes, Roger Taylor and Connors). Roger Taylor is a British tennis player (born 14 October 1941, in Sheffield, England). As usual from 1972 through 1982, very few of the best players visited the Australian continent. Year 1982 ( MCMLXXXII) was a Common year starting on Friday (link displays the 1982 Gregorian calendar) Among the top 20 players, only Rosewall and Newcombe participated. Five events stood out that year: (1) the U. S. Open with only Roy Emerson missing; (2) the French Open (among the best claycourt players, only Rosewall, Laver, and Emerson were absent); (3) the Grand Prix Masters, this time accessible to all players; (4) the WCT finals, reserved for WCT players (not including Nastase, Newcombe, Connors, and Manuel Orantes); and (5) the Davis Cup, open to everyone for the first time in its history. Roy Stanley Emerson (born November 3 1936) is a former Australian Tennis player who won 12 Grand Slam singles titles and 16 Grand Slam Manuel Orantes Corral (born February 5, 1949 in Granada, Spain) was a Tennis champion in the 1970s and 1980s By winning 17 tournaments in 1973 (the French Open, the Masters, the other 12 listed on the ATP website plus Washington D. C. , Istanbul, and Kingston), Nastase was the undisputed World No. 1 that year. In the Davis Cup, he won 7 of 8 singles rubbers, including a victory over Tom Okker, the "Flying Dutchman. Tom Okker (born February 22 1944) nicknamed The Flying Dutchman and Tom the Twitch, is a former Dutch Tennis player " In matches against the other top players, Nastase was 1–0 against Newcombe and 1–1 against Smith. The Romanian won the French Open without dropping a set (a feat repeated twice by Borg in in 1978 and 1980), and he won the French Open (clay) - Rome (clay) - Queen's Club (grass) in succession, a feat never equalled in the open era.

In terms of public popularity, Nastase was then at the peak of his career, famous both for his technical and physical genius and for his good humour on court. But among referees and other players, his reputation for gamesmanship resulted in the nickname "Nasty" after several incidents where his temperament got the better of him. Gamesmanship is the use of dubious (although not technically illegal methods to win a Game, such as Golf or Snooker. For one year, other players scorned him in locker rooms and did not speak to him.

Nastase's play began to decline in 1974 even though he was the only player to qualify for both the WCT Finals and the Grand Prix Masters. Year 1974 ( MCMLXXIV) was a Common year starting on Tuesday (link will display full calendar of the 1974 Gregorian calendar. (Newcombe played both events, although he played the Masters at Kooyong as an invitee instead of a qualifier. ) As usual, Nastase played well in the Masters, in particular against Newcombe in the semifinals. (Nastase finished his career with a 4–1 record versus Newcombe, losing only their first match in 1969. ) The Romanian, however, lost the final to Guillermo Vilas in five sets. Guillermo Vilas (born August 17 1952 in Buenos Aires, Argentina) is a former Argentine professional Tennis player

For the fifth consecutive year, Nastase reached the Masters final in 1975 (an event Connors did not enter even though he qualified for the second consecutive year), where he played perhaps the best match of his career to defeat Borg 6–2, 6–2, 6–1.

During the first half of 1976, Nastase won four tournaments (Atlanta WCT, Avis Challenge Cup WCT, U. S. Open Indoor, and La Costa), and head-to-head, he led Connors 2–1, Vilas 1–0, Ashe 1–0, and Borg 1–0. Nastase did not enter the Australian Open, which was again avoided by most of the top players. Nastase was prevented from entering the French Open because he participated in World Team Tennis. World TeamTennis is a league of team Tennis in the United States. In the second half of the year, Nastase lost to Borg in the men's singles final of Wimbledon and in the semifinals of the U. S. Open. Nastase won three other tournaments during the second half of the year, the Pepsi Grand Slam, South Orange, and the 4-man tournament of Caracas, Venezuela, in October (not to be confused with the Caracas WCT tournament in March), making seven tournament championships for the year. Venezuela (ˌvɛnəˈzweɪlə) officially the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela (Spanish República Bolivariana de Venezuela) is a country on the Nastase was generally considered to be the World No. 3 for the year, behind Connors and Borg.

Year 1977 ( MCMLXXVII) was a Common year starting on Saturday (link displays He was a quarterfinalist at Wimbledon and the French Open and participated in the WCT Finals.

Playing style

Nastase was able to play every tennis shot except that his volley was comparatively weak. When Nastase was playing well, his speed around the court and superb anticipation compensated for his lack of an excellent volley. He was one of the only players to have an effective offensive and defensive lob off both his forehand and backhand. His major weakness was a periodic loss of concentration, especially during high pressure matches such as: (1) the 1972 Davis Cup final singles match against Stan Smith; and (2) the 1976 Wimbledon final.
