The Men's Rimouski Challenger 2011 was the fifth edition of the tennis tournament in Rimouski , Canada . It was part of the ATP Challenger Tour 2011 and was played from March 14th to 20th, 2011 indoors on hard court.

The field of participants in the individual competition consisted of 32 players, that of the doubles competition consisted of 16 pairs. For the individual competition there was a qualifying round with 16 players, through which four players could qualify for the main field. As in the previous year, the total prize money for the event was US $ 35,000.

The winner of the individual competition was the fifth seeded South African Fritz Wolmarans , who defeated the top seeded American Bobby Reynolds in the tie-break of the third set in the final. It was Wolmaran's first single career Challenger title. Last year's winner Rik De Voest did not defend the title this year.
