Since turning professional in 2019, Springer had taken a long road, with middling success, to claim that card. In 2022, the young Texan made nine cuts with five top-10 finishes in 12 starts on the PGA TOUR Latinoamérica (now part of PGA TOUR Americas along with PGA TOUR Canada). In 2023, he won twice with a pair of other top-10 finishes in seven PGA TOUR Canada events, but he made just one cut in four Korn Ferry starts that season.
