The 1980 PSA Men's World Open Squash Championship is the men's edition of the 1980 World Open, which serves as the individual world championship for squash players. The event took place in Adelaide in Australia, from 4 October until 10 October 1980. Geoff Hunt won his fourth consecutive World Open title, defeating Qamar Zaman in the final for the third successive year.

The event was the fourth 'Open' event billed as the world championship. Previously the British Open had been considered the primary event in squash. The World Amateur Squash Championship was held in addition to the event for the last time because squash went fully open.
