Can someone tell me what this very light / bright green "grass" is and how to get rid of it?

Might be dove weed. Celsius and Tibute Total I think have activity on it but may take several years of application to get rid of it.

Looks a little thin bladed compared to the Doveweed I get. Mine is also flatter to the ground compared to my turf. It’s the same color. Possible as well that I’ve mislabeled what I get each year in small struggling wet spots.
I’d Celsius it at medium rate and fully expect a second spray 2 weeks later. I can also say that Tenacity is working for me with 2 applications 2 weeks apart.

Is that growing in a low area or an area that stays wet. It looks like southern watergrass.

I’ve looked at these photos several times over several days. It’s sometimes hard to identify a “type of grass” simply from a top down visual because there are lots of grasses that can start to look similar in close proximity to one another. Without seeing an individual plant and looking at the leaf structure and ligules and auricles and all the parts used to ID one grass from another, I did happen to notice in one of the photos that there are some seed heads. Looked like some Bermuda grass seed heads and also some Zoysia grass seed heads.
We have some areas of Zoysia grass mixed in with Bermuda grass on the golf courses I work on. Next to Bermuda, depending on the variety, Zoysia can have a light/bright green color.
I would say that, based on what I observe in your pictures…between the seed heads and the “steeple” shaped leaf tips, that you may have a patch of zoysia in your Bermuda grass. Also, looks like there may be a bit of gray leaf spot working on it as well.
