South Korea's Yang Ji-in won the women's 25m pistol event at the 2025 ISSF World Championships in Cairo. The ISSF is the International Shooting Sport Federation, the sport's global governing body. She took gold with 40 points in the final.

China's Yao Qianxun finished second with 38 points. India's Esha Singh took bronze, which was her first individual medal at a World Championships.

The result mattered because Yang was already the Olympic champion in the event, having won gold at the Paris 2024 Games. The Cairo title added a world crown to that, and it came a year after her Olympic victory against strong rivals in good form.

The win also set the tone for South Korea's campaign in the pistol events. It confirmed the country's strength in the discipline, which later showed in team competition at the next ISSF championships in Doha.
