In the final, the Turkish women's team, led by Dilşat Yıldız won their first tour title, defeating Zurich's Xenia Schwaller 6–4 in the championship game.

After Schwaller got two back in the sixth, the Turkish team scored a single in the seventh before stealing one in the eighth for the victory. Coming in as the eighth seeds, Team Yıldız finished 3–1 through the round robin to qualify for the quarterfinals, which included an upset victory over the host Stefania Constantini rink. In the playoffs, they beat Germany's Emira Abbes 9–3 in the quarters before defeating Norway's Marianne Rørvik 4–2 in the semis to qualify for the final. Team Schwaller went 4–0 through pool play and beat Korea's Gim Eun-ji 7–4 in the semifinals. In the third place game, Team Rørvik won 6–2 over Team Gim.
The inaugural event was held as a test event for the 2026 Winter Olympics, utilizing the venue that the curling competition will be played on during the Games. Because of this, it attracted many national teams, all with the hopes of qualifying for the 2026 Games.
