The UCI Track Cycling World Championships – Men's individual pursuit is the world championship individual pursuit event held annually at the UCI Track Cycling World Championships. Between its inception and 1992, the men's individual pursuit was separated into two events; one for professionals at 5,000 metres (5,500 yd) and one for amateurs at 4,000 m (4,400 yd). From 1993, all competitors competed in one open event of 4,000 m (4,400 yd). It was first held at the 1939 championships, but had to be abandoned upon the outbreak of World War II, so the first complete competition was at the 1946 championships.
The record number of wins by one rider is six as of 2023, held by Filippo Ganna of Italy.
