My understanding is that this is the grass they use on the greens. When cut very short it works well for a green. Unfortunately you can't cut it that short in your lawn. When they seed the greens the seed sometimes scatters (wind or birds) and ends up in your lawn. There is no way to effectively control it with chemicals without damaging your lawn. The only effective method I have found is hand pulling.
