Hello @Jason, zone 7A, near Greensboro NC, thanks for the prompt response. Here is the close up pictures..

I'm far from a pro, but I THINK it's bermudagrass. If so, it needs full sun or you'll end up with patchy bald spots.

And I just read that it does best when mowed low (like 1"), and mowed twice a week :-O

Got another close up pictures with rhizomes..

I don't see stolons, and it doesn't appear to have runners above ground. So I'm sticking with my original: bermudagrass.

I'm pretty sure that my lawn has a mix of crabgrass and bermudagrass, which I think look very similar. I hate it, though, and I've been pulling it all up by hand for the last month or so. It hangs over my sidewalk similarly to your picture, and it seems to attract grubs (which brings moles and voles) and fire ants (to which I'm super allergic).

Yes, its bermuda. Most likely. But I am not sure if it confused with centipede grass. I need to further analyze. WIll take more pictures and post.

But this grass does not grow high like my other hybrid grass. Its spread just above ground. Since it is outside of my house, I did not mow at all unless it was mowed by the external grass cutter. Looks pretty decent grass for me.

Where the leaves touch the ground, do you see sections of it rooting? If so then it could be centipedegrass; if not, more likely to be bermuda.

Hi @Jason, zone 7A, near Greensboro NC, I chat with one local guy here. He mentioned, this grass is most likely zoysia matrella. We call it Philippine or Manila grass here.. Mm.. Even zoysia has many varieties..

I looked in to zoysia at one point for my yard. It looks a lot like bermudagrass and doesn't grow as fast (two positives!), but when I felt it I thought it felt very stiff and tough. I was wanting something soft for my dogs paws, and for those rare occasions that I can get my girlfriend to split a bottle of wine and watch the stars ;-)

It also spreads when the leaves touch the ground, like centipedegrass. So you can look at the leaves and see if they root where they touch the ground, and if so then zoysia is definitely a possibility! Does it feel stiff and tough?

If it IS zoysia, that's a warm season grass and might turn brown and look pretty rough during the winter. What zone are you in? Warm season grasses don't do well in my area, but if you're farther South then it's probably better.

Jason: Elan is very far south of you, in an equatorial climate

@Jason, zone 7A, near Greensboro NC, yes it is stiff and tough. Not soft at all. Yeah, sorry, I am in Malaysia from Asia. Thanks @rifis (zone 6b-7a NJ). You are right, equatorial climate. Total rain forest climate. As I check with the local lawn contractor, bermuda is not common residential lawn grass preference. But, zoysia, yes. Here, mostly everything is sold as sod. Home owners rare seed it. I took a long path for my bermuda lawn construction (below, 3 month old) as inspired by many youtube channels. 😊

The zoysia have flower heads now. Its not a hybrid then.

Likely bermuda.

It looks like it has purple stems as runners; which is a characteristic of bermuda (couch) grass.

@Kim C, you say its bermuda? I am confused again. 😭. Anyway can it be zoysia matrella?
