Apart from these, he has a win each on the Korn Ferry Tour and the PGA Tour Latinoamérica.

Grillo began his career in 2011 by earning his European Tour card through Qualifying School.

He finished second on the Finals Money List, securing his PGA Tour card for the following season.

His second PGA Tour victory came in 2023 at the Charles Schwab Challenge where he won another playoff, this time defeating Adam Schenk.

In 2024, Grillo has competed in 20 PGA Tour events, making the cut in 17 of them. He has recorded two top-10 finishes and been impressive throughout the season so far.
