Notes

edit
  1. If Jordy Smith qualifies via 2023 World Surf League placings and since Teva Bouchgua of Morocco (the second-highest finisher from Africa) failed to achieve a top 30 placings for this event, this qualification place will be reallocated to the next highest-ranked eligible athlete, not yet qualified, regardless of continent, in this case it would be Alan Cleland of Mexico, as the champion of the men's event.
  2. If Kanoa Igarashi qualifies via 2023 World Surf League placings, this qualification place will be taken by Reo Inaba of Japan, as the second-highest finisher from Asia.
