The Boys' 100 metres at the 2011 World Youth Championships in Athletics was held at the Stadium Nord Lille Métropole on 6 and 7 July. The event was won by Odail Todd of Jamaica, who was only drafted into the event after World Youth leader Jazeel Murphy was forced to withdraw due to injury. Odean Skeen, the 2010 Youth Olympic 100 m champion, also had to withdraw prior to the event.
