[3] In 2015, Ma was the alternate on the Chinese team skipped by Zang Jialiang at the 2015 Pacific-Asia Curling Championships.

The team finished the round robin in second place with a 6–1 record before dropping their semifinal match to South Korea's Kim Soo-hyuk.

After taking a few seasons off, Ma returned to curling when he was appointed as skip of the Chinese men's team for the 2022 Winter Olympics, held in Beijing.

Despite not playing a single international competition before the Games, the team fared quite well, finishing the round robin with a 4–5 record.

This included defeating higher-seeded teams such as Switzerland's Peter de Cruz, Norway's Steffen Walstad, and Italy's Joël Retornaz.
