Men's single skating was contested during the figure skating events at the 2002 Winter Olympics.

This men's Olympic event was last where the 6.0 system was used.

This individual event was structured in a similar manner to the pairs event, with a short program and a free skating. 28 skaters entered the short program, but only the top 24 competitors continued to the free skating.

The 1998 Olympic champion Ilia Kulik from Russia did not defend his title. Evgeni Plushenko from Russia was the reigning World Champion and also competed in Salt Lake City.

Russia earned the second gold in figure skating at the 2002 games after two medal events.
