Notes:

This weed has taken over a good part of my Bermuda lawn in the last 6 weeks and I can’t identify it or determine how to kill it without harming my Bermuda. Scott’s weed and feed and Ortho weed b gone have no impact on it.

    You’re welcome bretrice! Thank you for the confirmed ID, sometime plants images are not enough to be certain adding to that some plants have lookalike.
    It’s so kind of you in sharing with us “the most economical option” in battling this pesky weed. Best of luck to you & your Bermuda lawn!

    Dear laura735, I can confirm that it IS Oldenlandia Corymbosa, or Diamond Flower. I further researched herbicides with the needed ingredient(s) and have ordered Speedzone as the most economical option. Thank you.

    Without its flowers, I’m taking a guess maybe the old world diamon-flower (Oldenlandia corymbosa syn. Hedyotis corymbosa )? Copy & paste the included link and see if you have a match. Click on images to enlarge. Best wishes!
