2019 Season

Decided to play in China after former University of Oklahoma teammate and the PGA TOUR Series-China’s all-time money list leader Charlie Saxon persuaded him. Played in all 13 tournaments without missing a cut and recorded an impressive nine top-10s. Had one victory and only finished outside the top-20 on two occasions. His consistency earned him a return for the 2020 Korn Ferry Tour season as the Order of Merit winner and Player of the Year.

• Zhuzhou Classic: At Xiangshui Bay GC, entered the final round tied with Matthew Cheung, a stroke behind 54-hole leader Yuwa Kosaihira. Had an uncharacteristically poor final round, shooting a 1-over 73 to fall into seventh place, five shots behind winner Motin Yeung.
• Haikou Classic: Through 27 holes at Mission Hills GC’s Sandbelt Trails Course, was in danger of missing the cut for the first time this season. Birdied three holes on the back nine to make the cut. After going 70-72-67 in his first three rounds, shot a final round, 7-under 64 to sneak into the top 10 for an eighth time through 11 events. The result also extended his lead on the Order of Merit over Trevor Sluman.
• Guangzhou Open: Lifted his first trophy on the PGA TOUR Series-China at the unofficial Guangzhou Open, a tournament reduced to 36 holes due to bad weather throughout the week. Backed an opening round, 7-under 62 with a 67 to hold a two-stroke advantage over fellow American Trevor Sluman after the completion of the second round. Although an unofficial event, the money counted as official, allowing McGreevy to take over the No. 1 spot on the Order of Merit.
• Huangshan Championship: Unreal season continued for Max McGreevy at the 54-hole, weather-shortened event at Hidden Tiger GC. Finished T4 to earn his sixth top-10 finish in eight events and his fifth top-five performance.
• Suzhou Open: Finished T8 with the help of a final-round, 7-under 65. Started his tournament with rounds of 67-73-70. Relinquished his Order of Merit to Trevor Sluman after Sluman finished runner up in Suzhou.
• Nantong Championship: Had a disappointing end to the tournament at Nantong Yangtze River GC. Held either outright or by himself the 36- and 54-hole leads. Maintained his advantage late in the final round before Kevin Techakanokboon caught him on the back nine. Had a chance to get into the playoff with Techakanokboon and Stephen Lewton, but he missed a short birdie putt on the final hole of regulation. The third-place finish was his fourth top-10 of the season.
• Beijing Championship: Earned his third top-five in four events with his T3 in Beijing. Was co-leading after 54 holes, with opening rounds of 70-64-67. However, failed to get any momentum going on the last day and closed with a 1-under 71 for his third 16-under total in the season’s first four events.
• Sanya Championship: Followed a fourth-place finish in Chongqing with a T2 at the 54-hole event in Sanya. Rounds of 66-67-67 put him at 16-under for the tournament. Opened his PGA TOUR Series-China, career with seven consecutive under-par rounds.
• Chongqing Championship: Had a solid debut to his PGA TOUR Series-China career, shooting four-under-par rounds—including three in the 60s at Poly GC—to finish alone in fourth, two shots out of the Taihei Sato-Yanwei Liu playoff that Sato won. Put pressure on the leaders early, with five birdies on his first seven holes. Could only make two more birdies the rest of the way, against one bogey.
