The men's IQFoil competition of the sailing events at the 2023 Pan American Games in Santiago was held from October 28 to November 3 at the Cofradia Nautica del Pacifico.
Points were assigned based on the finishing position in each race (1 for first, 2 for second, etc.). The points were totaled from the top 13 results of the first 16 races, with lower totals being better. If a sailor was disqualified or did not complete the race, 11 points were assigned for that race (as there were 10 sailors in this competition). The top sailor at that point competed in the final race, while the second and third in the semi-final and the others in the quarter-final.
Mateus Isaac from Brazil finished third in the preliminary regatta, but won the semi-final and the final race to claim the gold medal. Ethan Westera from Aruba dominated the preliminary phase and achieved a direct spot in the final final race, where he finished second. Noah Lyons from the United States received the bronze medal.[1]
