The wushu (taolu) competition at the 2022 World Games took place in July 2022,[1][2] in Birmingham, Alabama, at the Bill Battle Coliseum.

[3] Wushu featured as an invitational sport alongside duathlon, flag football, men's lacrosse, and wheelchair rugby.

In May 2021, the International Wushu Federation was admitted into the International World Games Association and wushu will be considered as a potential official event in the 2025 World Games.

[5] This is a taolu exclusive competition and so no sanda events took place compared to previous renditions.

[1] The qualification list was later revised in February 2022 due to Macau's IOC ineligibility to compete and the start of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and thus eight new spots were opened.
