Jen Azevedo joins The Sports Quarter to discuss Djokovic’s victories at French Open 2021 and Wimbledon 2021, especially his match with Nadal in the Semi-Finals of the French Open, which now finds him equal with Nadal and Federer in the tally of 20 Grand Slams. That has obviously led to a lively discussion amongst fans on the GOAT debate. Here is our take on all of these developments.

Jennifer Azevedo: General Manager, The Paseo Club, Valencia, CA

USPTA and IPTPA certified, Jen has been at the Paseo Club in both tennis and fitness for over a decade. A graduate and 4-year player at Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo, Jen has translated her love of all things tennis and fitness into a long list of on- and off-court fun. She is an Ironman and ultra-marathoner who qualified for the Boston Marathon in 2019, but ran it virtually in Santa Clarita.

Jen played a role on the coaching staff at Valencia High School for over ten years, helping to lead the teams to numerous league championships and one CIF Championship in 2014. She enjoys teaching at all levels and ages, but her three-year-old daughter is her favorite student-athlete.

After becoming Tennis Director and Director of Sports at the Paseo Club, Jen became the General Manager in 2020. She is thrilled to head a team focused on helping members of the community enjoy a healthy and connected life at the club.
