On Friday, she claimed bronze at the Meeting Indoor Miramas Metropole in Rohn, jumping 1.85 meters.

Then, on Sunday, Savaşkan once again made it to the podium, finishing third at the Meeting de L'Eure 2025 competition held at Jesse Owens Stadium. This time, her jump was 1.83 meters. The event was part of the Silver level Indoor World Athletics Tour.
