The men's 100 metres is a sprint event in the sport of athletics which features in all international level competitions that include track and field. Per standard rules for individual competitions, medals are awarded to the top three finishers in international 100 m finals. There are two global-level competitions: the 100 metres at the Olympics and the 100 metres at the World Athletics Championships. Beyond that the 100 m is contested in continental-level athletics championships and multi-sport events, as well as regional and community-based international competitions.
This list includes men's 100 m medallists in non-team-based international competitions that are open class, which indicates there are no restrictions on age, disability, occupation, or other affiliations beyond nationality.
