Kristina Savitskaya (Russian: Кристина Савицкая born 10 June 1991) is a Russian track and field athlete. She competed at the 2012 Summer Olympics in the women's heptathlon event.[1] In the 800m 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 However, the disqualification was rescinded when Schwarzkopf pointed out the error.[2] Savitskaya's final place was corrected from seventh to eighth.[3]
