The men's iQFoil competition at the 2023 Sailing World Championships was the men's windsurfer event and was held in The Hague, the Netherlands, 14–20 August 2023.[1] The entries were limited to 100 boards.[1] The competitors participated in an opening series that was planned to 20 races, followed by a medal series.[1] The medal series was planned for 19 August.[2]

The competition served as a qualifying event for the 2024 Olympic sailing competition with 11 out of 24 national quota being distributed at the event.[3]

Summary

Sebastian Kördel of Germany was the reigning world champion, having won the 2022 iQFoil World Championships in Brest, France,[4] while Nicolas Goyard of France had won the Paris 2024 Test Event the month before.[5] In the Sailing World Cup, Sam Sills of Great Britain had won the Trofeo Princesa Sofía,[6] Fabien Pianazza of France (not present) had won the Semaine Olympique Française,[7] Luuc van Opzeeland of the Netherlands had won the Allianz Regatta,[8] and Kördel had won the Kiel Week.[9]

Kördel and van Opzeeland took the lead after the first day of racing.[10] After them, Goyard had three third place finishes.[11] No wind limited the possibility to sail on 18 August.[12]

From the opening series results, Nicolò Renna of Italy qualified directly to the final, while Kördel and van Opzeeland made it to the semi-final.[12] van Opzeeland won the championship title by winning the medal series, ahead of Kördel, with Renna to receive the bronze medal.[13][14]

With the final results, national quotas were awarded by the Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Great Britain, Israel, New Zealand, Australia, Spain, Poland, Brazil and Switzerland.[15]
