  We obtain bounds on the distribution of the maximum of a martingale with
fixed marginals at finitely many intermediate times. The bounds are sharp and
attained by a solution to $n$-marginal Skorokhod embedding problem in
Ob{\l}\'oj and Spoida [An iterated Az\'ema-Yor type embedding for finitely many
marginals (2013) Preprint]. It follows that their embedding maximizes the
maximum among all other embeddings. Our motivating problem is superhedging
lookback options under volatility uncertainty for an investor allowed to
dynamically trade the underlying asset and statically trade European call
options for all possible strikes and finitely-many maturities. We derive a
pathwise inequality which induces the cheapest superhedging value, which
extends the two-marginals pathwise inequality of Brown, Hobson and Rogers
[Probab. Theory Related Fields 119 (2001) 558-578]. This inequality, proved by
elementary arguments, is derived by following the stochastic control approach
of Galichon, Henry-Labord\`ere and Touzi [Ann. Appl. Probab. 24 (2014)
312-336].
