The men's competition in skeleton at the 2022 Winter Olympics was held on 10 February (runs 1 and 2) and 11 February (runs 3 and 4), at the Xiaohaituo Bobsleigh and Luge Track in Yanqing District of Beijing.[1]

The defending champion was Yun Sung-bin. The silver medalist, Nikita Tregubov, qualified for the Olympics but was not allowed to take a flight to China due to the positive COVID-19 test, even though he had no symptoms, and had to miss the Olympics.[2][3] The bronze medalist, Dom Parsons, retired from competitions. Christopher Grotheer was the 2021 World champion. Alexander Tretyakov, who was also the 2014 Olympic champion, and Alexander Gassner were the silver and bronze medalists, respectively. Martins Dukurs won the 2021–22 Skeleton World Cup, followed by Axel Jungk and Grotheer.

Grotheer won the first two runs, setting the track record in the first one. After the first day, Jungk was 0.7 seconds behind him, closely followed by Yan Wengang and Tratyakov.
