Here's an update on perhaps the "real version" of Kelly Robinson .... a "former C.I.A. agent who used his status as an elite international tennis player ... as the perfect cover for espionage."

The Washington Post Magazine ran an article about Fred Kovaleski two years ago. Here's what we posted then.

Well, in today's edition, there's an update on Fred (perhaps ... exactly what Kelly would be doing today, too??)


Here's a bit of what he wrote:

Washington Post Magazine - Editor's Note by Tom Shroder
Sunday, August 17, 2008; Page W02

"TWO YEARS AGO, we ran a story about a man named Fred Kovaleski -- a former CIA agent whose status as an elite international tennis player had been the perfect cover for espionage. I was especially interested in something about Kovaleski that was never mentioned: Fred was the No. 1 tennis player in the world -- in the 80-and-over bracket."


Here's the entire article ....
