As you can see, many of the ladies are, at present keeping up pretty right and tight with the male players, who are interspersed in and around them with 3.5 and 3.0 points.
I am SO happy to see Salome Melia as the top female after 4 rounds! After having had a very good year in 2009, her play leveled off -- guess she was busy being romanced because she got married a few years ago :) I have seen her name showing up in more events during the latter part of 2012. Keeping my fingers crossed she has a great showing at Gibraltar! The female competition will be fierce, because the first price will not be shared (all other prizes below will be totaled and split up among players with tied scores):

Yesterday in R3, Stefanova showed her mettle by defeating GM Radoslaw Wojtaszek (POL 2723). Way to go, Girl!
No reports from today at the official website yet -- but I see at Chess-Results.com that Stefanova was black today against USA's Gata Kamsky, who took the full point, moving his score to 3.5 and it looks like all of the ladies playing the higher rated players fell to defeat today. Boooooo!
