During this period top-class tournaments were rare and Zukertort's best performances were mostly in matches, notably against Anderssen in 1871 and Joseph Henry Blackburne in 1881 ( 6 wins, 2 losses, 5 draws ).

Zukertort's win in the London 1883 chess tournament was his most significant success: he won his games against most of the world's leading players, scoring 22 / 26, and he finished 3 points ahead of Steinitz, who was second with 19 / 26.

Poor health and lack of physical stamina appeared to be one of Zukertort's two long-term weaknesses: some commentators attributed to illness the severity of his defeat in the 1872 match against Steinitz ; aside from the aforementioned tournaments, in the 1883 London tournament he won 22 of his first 23 games, enough to give him an uncatchable lead, but lost his last three games.
