Sage Ahrens-Nichols
An eccentric swing-for-the-fences player who kept aiming at Savannah and kept coming up short on numbers.
Known for
Sage opened Survivor 49 stuck at the bottom of the Uli majority with Jawan Pitts. Both tribe switches handed her new faces from Hina, and she turned those friendships into a weapon, using them to finally dispatch her rival Shannon Fairweather.
The merge started in her favor, then flipped fast: she and the former Hina crew slid to the bottom together. From there Sage made Savannah Louie her white whale, lining up shot after shot at the game's big strategic threat and never quite finding the numbers. She still clawed her way to Final Tribal Council, and she even earned a jury vote, but most of the jury read her game as more heart than plan.
