Sole Survivor
- Won Survivor 49 (2025) after 26 days.

Savannah had the pre-merge wired, running original Uli and then post-switch Hina. The merge turned on her fast, with the rest of the group lining up against her, Rizo Velovic and Sophi Balerdi. So she kept winning: four individual immunities kept a huge target from ever landing. Meanwhile her trio whittled down the majority until they were the ones in charge. She lost the final immunity, then beat Rizo at fire to make the end. The jury knocked her for weak connections, but the challenge run and the grit carried her to a 5-2-1 win over Sophi and Sage Ahrens-Nichols.
Just weeks after that win aired, she opened In the Hands of the Fans by owning up to her title. Then she lied about not picking up an advantage on a journey, and her tribe smelled it. When they lost the second immunity challenge, Cirie Fields pointed at the shadiness to protect Ozzy Lusth, and the vote swung onto Savannah.
