The 2025 Scottish Open (officially the 2025 BetVictor Scottish Open) was a professional snooker tournament that took place from 15 to 21 December 2025 at the Meadowbank Sports Centre in Edinburgh, Scotland. Qualifying took place from 14 to 17 October at the Robin Park Leisure Centre in Wigan, England. The 10th consecutive edition of the tournament since it was revived in 2016, it was the 11th ranking event of the 2025–26 snooker season, following the 2025 Snooker Shoot Out and preceding the 2026 German Masters. It was the third of four tournaments in the season's Home Nations Series, following the 2025 English Open and the 2025 Northern Ireland Open and preceding the 2026 Welsh Open. The tournament was broadcast by TNT Sports in the United Kingdom and Ireland, by Eurosport in mainland Europe, by local channels in China and elsewhere in Asia, and by WST Play in all other territories. The winner received £100,000 from a total prize fund of £550,400.

Lei Peifan was the defending champion, having defeated Wu Yize 9–5 in the 2024 final, but he lost 3–4 to Yuan Sijun in the second round. The final was contested between the world number 17 Chris Wakelin and the world number 70 Chang Bingyu, who reached his maiden ranking final. Wakelin won eight consecutive frames to defeat Chang 9–2, securing his first Scottish Open title and second ranking title. Wakelin advanced to 14th in the world rankings after the event, while Chang advanced to 62nd. The tournament produced 67 century breaks, 18 in the qualifiers in Wigan and 49 at the main stage in Edinburgh, of which the highest was a 146 by Zhao Xintong in his second-round match with Joe O'Connor. The final of the event was the last match officiated by Leo Scullion, who retired from refereeing after 26 years on the professional circuit.
