Men's singles
2023 Australian Open
Champion	Novak Djokovic
Runner-up	Stefanos Tsitsipas
Final score	6–3, 7–6(7–4), 7–6(7–5)

Novak Djokovic defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas in the final, 6–3, 7–6^(7–4), 7–6^(7–5) to win the men's singles tennis title at the 2023 Australian Open. With the win, he equalled Rafael Nadal's all-time record of 22 men's major singles titles. He also became the first man to win ten Australian Open titles, and the second man to win ten titles at a single major, after Nadal at the French Open. It was also his 93rd ATP Tour-level singles title, surpassing Nadal's tally for the fourth-most such titles.

Nadal was the defending champion, but lost in the second round to Mackenzie McDonald.

Carlos Alcaraz, Casper Ruud, Tsitsipas and Djokovic were in contention for the ATP world No. 1 ranking at the beginning of the tournament. By winning the tournament, Djokovic claimed the top spot. Alcaraz, the incumbent world No. 1, withdrew from the tournament due to a right leg injury.

As in the previous major held a few months earlier, neither of the top two seeds advanced to the quarterfinals, with Nadal and Ruud both losing in the second round; this marked the first men's singles major since the 2002 Australian Open where the top two seeds lost prior to the third round. Tsitsipas became the youngest finalist since Djokovic in 2011. Tommy Paul became the first American man to reach the semifinals since Andy Roddick in 2009.
