The 2025 AMJ Players' Championship was held from April 8 to 13 at the Mattamy Athletic Centre in Toronto, Ontario. It was the fifth and final Grand Slam event of the 2024–25 curling season.

For the first time in the history of the event, the finals for both the men's and women's were rematches of their respective 2025 World Championships. In the men's event, World Champion Bruce Mouat and his Scottish rink took on Yannick Schwaller from Switzerland, while World women's champion Rachel Homan of Canada faced Silvana Tirinzoni and her team from Switzerland.

In the women's final, Tirinzoni took her revenge against Homan, beating the Ottawa-based rink 5–4, winning her fifth career Slam title in the process. In the game, Tirinzoni got on the board first in the third when they were forced to a single after last-thrower Alina Pätz over-threw a difficult raise attempt to get a second point. Pätz made a perfect freeze in the fourth, which Homan tried to dislodge on an angle-raise of her own, but missed to give up the steal of one. In the fifth, Homan was facing four on her last, a hit which she made to score a single, to go down 2–1. Pätz drew to the eight-foot on her last in the sixth to score two, which was confirmed after a measurement. Homan drew for three in the seventh to tie the game going into the last end. On her last Pätz faced two staggered Homan stones, but was able to take them both out and stick to win the game. It was Tirinzoni's first win over Homan in the season.

In the men's final, Team Mouat beat Team Schwaller 6–5, and became the first team to win four slams in a single season. It was also their 10th career Slam title. In the match, Schwaller was forced to a single in the first after Mouat bailed out his team by making two double takeouts. Schwaller took a 2–0 lead in the second after Mouat came up short on his draw attempt. Mouat tied the game in the fourth after making a draw for two. Mouat forced Schwaller to a single in the fifth when Schwaller's last rock thrower Benoît Schwarz-van Berkel made a tap against three Scottish counters. In the sixth, Mouat made a tap for two, which was confirmed by a measurement, with his second stone barely biting the rings. Schwarz-van Berkel missed a double takeout in the seventh, giving up a steal of one to go down 5–3 heading into the last end. In the eighth, Team Schwaller had a chance for three and the win, but Mouat made a double on his last, foricing Schwarz-van Berkel to make a tap for two to send the game into an extra frame. In the extra, Mouat came up short on a draw to the button attempt on his first, but was successful on his last, making a raise takeout to score the winning point.

The once-popular Brownie curling broom. Team Mouat will be forced to use one twice in the Battle of the Sexes game.

On April 7, a day prior to the event beginning, the world number one ranked women's team, Rachel Homan and the number one men's team, Bruce Mouat (who both won their respective World Curling Championships in 2025) played in the "Rio Mare Battle of the Sexes" Skins game. The match featured celebrity coaches (Matt Bonner, John Cullen and Team Isabella Wranå), guest appearances and unique scoring rules. It was the first time a game has been held prior to the start of a Slam with both teams raising money for their charity of choice. The first six ends were worth $1,000 with the final two ends worth $3,000. Homan's winnings went towards the Sandra Schmirler Foundation, and Mouat's to Charlie Boy's Cancer Fundraiser for a friend who is battling stage four skin cancer. To equalize the playing field, the Mouat rink were required to use 'soft foam' brush heads, and Team Homan were allowed to force Team Mouat to use Brownie Brooms twice in the game (one in the first half, once in the second).
