Having missed out on a spot at Rio, Cathryn Bristow has quickly turned her attention to the the Scottish Open.

Bristow was put forward by New Zealand Golf for the Olympics, however the New Zealand Olympics Committee didn't believe she met their criteria, of a top 16 finish.

Bristow says while she's obviously disappointed with the New Zealand Olympic committee decision, she's moving on from it.

Cathryn Bristow will also contest the final qualifying for next week's British Open.
