In Singles the first 3 get a Olympic quota? 

What happens if one of those 3 ( or maybe all) later qualify with the team, how is the reallocation done?

According the Qualification Document, the reallocation works like this for Continental tournaments. (I believe European Games is one):

 

1. Continental Qualification Tournament (Teams/Singles/Mixed Doubles) Any unused quota places obtained at the Continental Qualification Tournaments will be reallocated to the next best-placed eligible team / athlete of the same gender or mixed doubles pair, not yet qualified, from the respective Continental Qualification Tournament. If the continental quotas are not filled by 15th May 2020, the remaining quota places will be reallocated to the next best-ranked eligible athlete of the same gender or mixed double pair of the same continent on the ITTF Olympic Teams/Singles/Mixed Doubles Ranking list of May 2020.

Edit: Of course quotas for the singles could be reallocated to the European Qualification Event in Moscow in April. 3 quotas are availble at the moment and maybe the unused quotas from the European games are added. But to be clear, I'm not sure about this part.

You should have listened to our podcast "Today in Minsk" from Day 1   The singles quota which will be won by the later qualified team member will be redistributed at the other European Qualification Tournament, which will be held in April 2020 in Moscow.

Means if you are 4th here,  bad luck, try again

Doesn't it say that the quota is getting reallocated to the next best athlete in the respective event?

Anyway, well done Pucar.

Great comeback by Groth!  One step closer to an Olympic quota.

It was clarified by the ETTU that only the medalists will be eligible for the quotas, any extra will be added to the Moscow event.

It made sense since there was a possibility that "5th place" would get the quota (though I guess they could have followed archery's lead and said only the top 4 were eligible).

 

I'm not sure how exactly the singles quota won at the Pan American Games will work should the nation also win the team quota at the North/Latin America qualifier. Will it go to the silver medalist or will it go to the second qualification tournament?
