MICHAEL van Gerwen believes it will be all bite on the night – despite dental surgery when his jaw will be broken TWICE. 

The three-time champion begins his quest for a fourth crown at the Paddy Power PDC World Championship tonight with many fans unaware of his punishing orthodontic schedule.

Van Gerwen, who faces Keane Barry in the second round at Alexandra Palace, shrugs off his regime of braces and operations as an inconvenience.

And in 2023, MVG has won the Premier League, the World Series and has reached two other major finals.
