Ok, I tried both examples, and they do work to a point, however, something is
not right...

In my spreadsheet, I have the following:

High Game Player
100 Player 01
110 Player 02
140 Player 03
200 Player 04
250 Player 05
170 Player 06
280 Player 07
279 Player 08
259 Player 09
268 Player 10

Using either formula, they both return a result of Player 10 when clearly
the high game is with Player 07.

=LOOKUP(MAX(A2:A11),A2:A11,B2:B11)

or

=VLOOKUP(MAX(A2:A11),A2:B11,2)

Any ideas?

Frank, if you put the scores in column A and the names in column B, you could
use the following: =VLOOKUP(MAX(A2:A4),A2:B4,2). HTH

I'm trying to use the MAX formula to not only get the maximum score, but to
also show the player name as well.

My excel sheet is set up like this:

PLAYER NAME SCORE
Player 1 200
Player 2 210
Player 3 220

I want the formula to not only show me that 220 is the highest score, but I
also want to show the name of the player who has the highest score.

Thanks,
