Michael van Gerwen took the plane to Dubai after his shocking defeat against John Henderson in the first round of the World Grand Prix in Dublin.
The 28-year-old Dutchman hopes to leave the adventure in Ireland behind him, as he went on a week's holiday to Dubai with his wife Daphne and daughter Zoë.
Van Gerwen already had his sense of humor back. "This is a well deserved holiday after a long week in Dublin", he said on Twitter!
