The men's laser competition of the Sailing events at the 2015 Pan American Games in Toronto was held from July 12 to July 18 at the Royal Canadian Yacht Club. The last champion was Julio Alsogaray of Argentina.

Points were assigned based on the finishing position in each race (1 for first, 2 for second, etc.). The points were totaled from the top 11 results of the first 12 races, with lower totals being better. If a sailor was disqualified or did not complete the race, 17 points were assigned for that race (as there were 16 sailors in this competition). The top 8 sailors at that point competed in the final race, with placings counting double for final score. The sailor with the lowest total score won.

All times are Eastern Daylight Time (UTC-4).

Race M is the medal race. Each boat can drop its lowest result provided that all twelve races are completed. If less than ten races are completed all races will count. Boats cannot drop their result in the medal race.
