    Details are not close enough to be certain. I’m guessing this might be field madder (Sherardia arvensis)? Sorry, I’m not an expert in turf management, you should try these experts from the included link below for further help in eradication methods in lawn. If this isn’t S. arvensis, please resubmit with closeups of leaves, stems, flowers & fruits if there are any. Best wishes! https://www.weedalert.com/view-larger-weed-image.php?ID=39
