A La Stampa olasz napilap interjút készített az első olyan teniszezővel, aki vezette a sportág ranglistáját. Ilie Năstase ismét meglepő nyilatkozatot tett: „Mindig azzal vádoltak, hogy cigány vagyok. Ez igaz. Román cigány vagyok. Erre pedig büszke is vagyok”.
Totally. Didn't have the 'serious' work ethic or concentration. As far as being an amazing shot maker and talent - he had no equals - not even Mac. He did apply himself well enough to win 4 Masters Champonships and easily beat Borg in the last one (1975).
The most beautiful player before Roger came along...
Watched him play and umpired so many matches of his...
Once when he started one of his antics I said: "Please play on, Nastase!", he yelled back: "You call me Mr Nastase yo mothafugga, I call ya Mr umpire!"
He played doubles in our club this summer, with the former German chancellor Schroeter. A little slower, but the touch is all still there... magnificent!

Yes Nasty was awesome.
Waiting for someone to put that '79 US Open Match with McEnroe on line when he told Mac to call him MEESTER sonofbitch.
That was a crazy match. I was like in 10th grade and remember seeing beers and other debris and stuff flying into the night.
