2025 World Women's Curling Championship

The 2025 World Women's Curling Championship (46th) (branded as the 2025 LGT World Women's Curling Championship for sponsorship reasons) was held from March 15 to 23 at the Uijeongbu Indoor Ice Rink in Uijeongbu, South Korea. It was the first international curling event held in Uijeongbu and the second World Women's Championship held in Korea as Gangneung hosted the championship. This event was the last women's event to earn Qualification Points for the 2026 Winter Olympics.

The format for the Championship featured a thirteen team round robin. The top six teams qualified for the playoff round, where the top two teams receive a bye while the remaining four play in the qualification round to qualify for the semifinals.

The final featured a rematch of between Canada's Rachel Homan rink and Switzerland's Team Silvana Tirinzoni, who both faced off against each other in the final, which was won by Homan. In the game, Homan took a commanding 6–3 lead in the eighth end. On her final stone of the end, Homan made a delicate tap to sit two. Swiss fourth-thrower Alina Pätz then overcurled on her attempt to draw to the button, giving up a steal of two. Pätz missed her final shot in the 9th as well, giving up another point, to go down 7–3. At this point, the Swiss team conceded the match to Canada. With the win, Homan and her team became the first Canadian rink to win back to back world championships since Sandra Schmirler in and . It was the third World Championship for Homan and second Emma Miskew, who also won in . It was also the first time a Canadian men's or women's national team had won a gold at a World Championship overseas since Homan's win in 2017.

China won the bronze medal, defeating the host South Koreans 9–4.
