Kristina Savitskaya is a Russian track and field athlete. She competed at the 2012 Summer Olympics in the women's heptathlon event.
In the 800 m event of the heptathlon, her foot crossed the lane-marking line too early, but this led to a mistaken disqualification of Lilli Schwarzkopf in the neighbouring lane. However, the disqualification was rescinded when Schwarzkopf pointed out the error.
Savitskaya's final place was corrected from seventh to eighth. She won the national title at the Russian Athletics Championships in 2012 and 2013.
As of Nov 12, 2026: Heptathlon 6681 (#37 all-time), Long Jump 6.65 (#551 all-time), 2014 season best 1.77 (Jun 9, 2014, Cheboksary (RUS)) · Last competition: Russian Combined Events Championships, Jun 10, 2014, 6.13 · 35 years old
